  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Los Angeles Dodgers (6-7) 0 0 0 2 0 0 3 0 0 5 8 0
Washington Nationals (7-4) 2 1 0 0 1 0 0 2 X 6 15 1
Nationals Edge Past Dodgers, 6-5
David Dahl was instrumental in his team's 6-5 triumph over the Los Angeles Dodgers. The right fielder went 4 for 5 with a double and 3 singles for the Washington Nationals. Robbie McJannett picked up the save, his 3rd. The win puts Washington at 7-4.

Had Christian Bethancourt not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 3rd, Bethancourt hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 6-5, in favor of the Nationals.

"Good teams find a way to win close games," Bethancourt said.
