Though the conditions were not ideal, the Atlanta Hammers and Washington Nationals came back from a rain delay to finish their game.

Atlanta Hammers pitcher Mike Whiteford was in fine form, leading his team past the Washington Nationals, 5-1. The first-place Nationals have dropped 4 straight games.

The Hammers got a big at-bat from left fielder Josh Moore. For the game, Moore was 1 for 4 with a double. He drove in 3 runs. In the bottom of the fifth, with the bases loaded, he stroked a bases-clearing double. His 29th double of the season gave Atlanta a 3-1 lead.

"I loved our energy," said Atlanta manager Vince Harrison. "I loved the way we played."
