Washington Wins, 6-5, Over Brewers
Milwaukee second baseman Ruben Maldonado had a good game, even if his team did not. The Brewers dropped a 6-5 decision to Washington at American Family Field. Maldonado was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. Reliever Jim Runyon picked up the win. His record improves to 5-4. Bobby Gomez, who is tied for 2nd in the NL in holds with 25, took the loss. Washington raised its record to 70-70 with the win.

Nelson Prado drove in one run for Washington. The 29-year old third baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the eighth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 5-5 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Dashawn Sizemore. It was his 33rd RBI of the season.

Washington manager Sundown Nats was pleased with the team's effort. "Our guys played hard, they played all the way through," he said.
