The Washington Nationals weathered an outstanding game by Chicago right fielder Nankai Hudkins to topple the Cubs, 6-5. Hudkins was 3-5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. Dallas Cart earned the save for Washington, his 12th. The Nationals saw their win-loss record go to 34-30. At the same time, the Cubs fell to 36-27.

The Nationals got a big at-bat from catcher Gerwin Beekhuizen. For the game, Beekhuizen went 1 for 2 with a home run, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the sixth, with the bases empty, he stroked a solo home run. His 6th home run of the season gave Washington a 6-5 lead.

"We put it together and came out with the win," Beekhuizen said in postgame remarks. "That's the main thing."
