Stephen Strasburg did it again, earning his 13th win of the season (13-0) in the Washington Nationals' 5-1 win over the visiting Pittsburgh Pirates. Strasburg struck out six and allowed just three hits and one earned run in eight innings of work on the mound in the nation's capital. With the win he joined Max Scherzer as the only two pitches in the last three decades to start a season 13-0. Two more with the Pirates in D.C. this weekend.
