Washington (Rk+) starter Brent Legg pitched well against the Billings Mustangs at Dehler Park. The right-hander led his team to a win, 6-3, in 12 innings. Victor Bejarano, now 1-0, was credited with the win in 3 innings of relief. He allowed 1 run on 3 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 1. At 30-24, the Nationals are currently second in the West.

Washington (Rk+) won the game in part because of Franklin Gonzalez. The second baseman ripped a run-scoring double in the top of the 12th inning to put the Nationals ahead, 4-3. For the game, Gonzalez had 1 double and 1 home run in 6 at-bats.

"Big win," said Gonzalez.
