Nationals Losers, 5-4, to Las Vegas
Chris Strickland helped his team muscle past the Washington Nationals, 5-4. In the game, the Las Vegas third baseman was 3 for 4 with a double and 2 singles. Ryan McLellan, who led the NL in saves with 46 last year, earned the save for Las Vegas. Las Vegas has a record of 46-19, placing them first in the National League West Division.

Colin Bridgens had a big 2-run home run for the Hustle in the top of the first inning. With Las Vegas leading 1-0 and a runner on 3rd, he got a sinker from 27-year old right-handed pitcher Andrew Babcock and swatted a home run to right. It was his 12th home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Hustle ahead, 3-0.

"Good pitching stops good hitting," said Bridgens. "And vice-versa."
