Nationals Drop Astros, 5-3
The Houston Astros could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Miguel Fregoso into a win. Instead, the Washington Nationals prevailed, 5-3. Fregoso threw 5.1 innings of shutout ball. Washington reliever Mike DeWolfe was the winner. His record is now 3-0. Adam Bailey took the loss. The Nationals, at 72-84, have now won 7 straight.

Jacob Sessions came through with a big-time hit for Washington. The left fielder smacked a 3-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to give his team the lead, 4-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"When you put in the effort and you get really focused, the results come in ways you're not even expecting," said Nationals manager Doug Graff.
