Nationals Deal Reds 5-4 Setback
The Washington Nationals did just enough to sneak past the Cincinnati Reds, 5-4, at Great American Ball Park. Washington pitcher Mark Buehrle, in particular, had a standout performance. With the win, Washington upped its record to 19-17.

Washington used a well-timed hit by Chad Tracy to capture the win. The third baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Nationals ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 5 at-bats, it was important.

"I was hoping to make good contact," said Tracy. "I wasn't trying to knock the snot out of it."
