Nationals Earn Clutch Win, 12-11
The Baltimore Orioles got a sterling performance from shortstop Mike Garland, but the Washington Nationals still prevailed, 12-11. Garland was 3 for 5 with 2 home runs, a double, and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. Washington, now 15-9, has played well in the early going.

The decisive blow was delivered by Carlos Sepulveda in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a bases-clearing double off 28-year old right-handed pitcher Randy Marte to win the game for Washington. The home crowd went nuts.

"If you want to be considered a good team, these are the kind of games you have to win," said Washington manager Mark Grudzielanek.
