Nationals 5-1 Victors Over Atlanta
The Washington Nationals downed the Atlanta Firebirds, 5-1, at Nationals Park. Stellar pitching by Ty Buttrey had a lot to do with it. The right-hander handcuffed his opponent all game. Buttrey got the win, improving to 4-3. He gave up 5 hits and walked 1 over 7 innings. He allowed 1 run. The win puts Washington at 28-23 this season.

Aaron Judge had a big 2-run double for the Nationals in the bottom of the sixth inning. With Washington leading 3-1 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a cutter from 29-year old right-handed pitcher Chad Jackson and swatted a double to right-center. It was his 7th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Nationals ahead, 5-1.

"I had a good game," said Judge. "Winning makes it even better."
