10-6 Win Takes Nationals to 69-57
The Washington Nationals took on the Philadelphia Phillies at Nationals Park.

Washington shortstop Armando Cruz contributed significantly to his team's 10-6 win over the Philadelphia Phillies. Cruz went 3 for 4 with 2 runs scored to lead the offensive attack for the Nationals. The winner was Washington reliever Cole Henry, now 1-0. The loser was Sam Bachman.

The Phillies had been locked in a 4-4 tie with the Nationals going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the slugging first baseman Nolan Gorman came to the plate. Gorman hit a 2-run home run on a full count fastball from Philadelphia hurler Tyler Holton. It was Gorman's 35th home run of the year.

"Our goal is to improve each and every day," Cruz told the Washington Chronicle.

Washington has won 4 consecutive games.
