Max Scherzer struck out 11 batters in 8.0 IP, throwing six scoreless before he gave up a two-run blast in the seventh, but the Washington Nationals pounded the Philadelphia Phillies, 7-2, and swept the three-game set in Citizens Bank Park. With the win, the Nationals improved to 33-21 on the season heading into a day off tomorrow and their three-game weekend set in Cincinnati. Will Bryce Harper return to face the Reds? What was Michael A. Taylor doing when he got doubled up in the eighth? Lots of questions...
