Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Shane Mardirosian? The Washington second baseman had a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Nationals on top, 4-3. For the game, Mardirosian had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"We were the better team," crowed Mardirosian.
