Charlie Best took the loss for Myrtle Beach. With the win over Myrtle Beach, the Nationals improved to 52-58.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With one out, Cardenas hit a curveball from Charlie Best for a solo home run. The Nationals, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"I like the grit of this ballclub," Cardenas said.
