The exploits of shortstop Greg Somers helped the Atlanta Braves defeat the Washington Nationals, 3-1. Somers went 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs. Juan Gerardino got the win, improving to 9-10. He held the Nationals to 1 run on 6 hits over 5.1 innings, while striking out 6 and walking 2. Tony Martinez earned the save for Atlanta, his 37th.

Jimmy Powell, who finished 3rd in the AL in slugging percentage with .616 in 2104, had a direct impact on the outcome. Powell contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the fifth inning to put Atlanta up, 2-1.

Atlanta manager Dan Hoagland called it "a good, solid win."

At 76-75, Atlanta is in second place in the National League East Division.
