Neither starter lasted long tonight in a high-scoring game in D.C. that the Washington Nationals took, 9-7, for the second-straight over the Atlanta Braves. Gio Gonzalez didn't have anything, but luckily for him, Braves' starter Williams Perez wasn't sharp either and the Nats outlasted the Braves for a second straight win over their NL East rivals in the nation's capital. With the win the Nats improved to 81-57 on the season. One more with the Braves tomorrow at 7:05 PM EDT. Will Stephen Strasburg return?
