Washington Gets 2-1 Road Win
The Washington Nationals took St. Louis pitcher Chris Bassitt's best shot and still were able to claim a win at Busch Stadium. The final score had Washington getting past the Cardinals, 2-1. Bassitt went 6 innings and allowed 2 runs, striking out 5. Miguel Romero got credit for the win, improving to 2-0. He allowed no runs on no hits in 1.2 innings. Adam Morgan notched his 3rd save in 5 chances.

It could have been a different outcome for Washington, had it not been for Evan Longoria, the 2008 Rookie of the Year Award winner . Longoria contributed a run-scoring ground out in the top of the fourth inning to put Washington up, 2-1.

"I'll probably toss and turn tonight," St. Louis manager Tyler Wagner said following the tough loss.

With the win, Washington pushed its record to 50-38.
