Washington 8, Pittsburgh 4
The Washington Nationals are still figuring things out in the bullpen, but Tuesday night, the offense did more than enough to earn a victory.

It was not a night for the timid with summer conditions and winds howling out of Wrigley Field on Tuesday.

Handed a first-inning gift of five runs by his Milwaukee Brewer teammates Tuesday night, right-hander Jimmy Nelson went to the mound not wanting to mess it up.
San Francisco 2, LA Dodgers 1
