Nationals Drop Cardinals, 3-2
The Washington Nationals picked up a win at Busch Stadium, taking down the St. Louis Cardinals, 3-2. Starting pitcher Brandon Woodruff was a big reason why. In 7.2 innings, Woodruff surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 9 and walking 1. He allowed 2 runs. Kyle Crick earned his 23rd save in 24 chances.

Washington relied on the hitting of Yonder Alonso to pick up the win. The first baseman clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Nationals on top, 3-0. For the game, Alonso had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

Alonso called the win "a lesson in teamwork."

The first-place Nationals have a one-game lead in their division.
