National Record

Matt Chico had another nice outing today, throwing four shutout innings.  He gave up two hits, two walks and he struck out two in the win.  Saul Rivera threw two shutout innings while Chad Cordero got into trouble in the eighth but pitched out of it.

There were no real hitting stars in the game.  Robert Fick singled and drove in a run while Jesus Flores’ double was the only extra base hit of the game.  The Nationals have a night game tomorrow against their divison rival, the Atlanta Braves.  Tim Redding will get the start.
