Nationals Come Back Late to Top Cubs, 4-2
The Washington (Rk+) Nationals dumped the Chicago (Rk+) Cubs, 4-2, in large part due to shortstop Alex Ponce de Leon. On the day, Ponce de Leon was 1-2 with a triple and 2 walks. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for the Nationals. The Nationals saw their win-loss record go to 36-33. At the same time, the Cubs fell to 30-39.

Ponce de Leon had a game-changing triple in the top of the eighth. On a 0-1 fastball from Fernando Gutierrez, he banged a 2-run triple to center, giving the Nationals a 3-1 lead. It was the 1st triple of the year for Ponce de Leon.

Ponce de Leon called the win "an overall solid one."
