Last Game Out

Thanks to an impressive performance from LHP Patrick Corbin, who threw 6.0 shutout innings of two-hit ball and back-to-back home runs from Andrés Chaparro and José Tena, the Nationals pulled off a 4-2 win over the NewYork Yankees. Corbin has now allowed two earned runs or fewer over his last three starts, and during that span, Corbin is 2-0 with a 1.65 ERA with 13 hits allowed, five walks, and 16 strikeouts.

Nationals OF Dylan Crews got his first Major League hit, a double off Gerrit Cole in the bottom of the second inning. Crews became the third Nationals player to record their first hit off a Cy Young winner, and Crews finished 2-for-4 with a double, a stolen base, and a run scored.
