Ryan Zimmerman had a two run home run in the third inning to lead the Nationals with two rbi.  Rob Mackowiak had a rbi ground out to second base in the seventh inning.

John Lannan was the losing pitcher as he pitched six inning and gave up twelve hits and six runs.  Lannan got hit hard and also gave up one home run.  Ryan Church took Lannan deep in the third inning.  Lannan is now 3-4 on the season.

Luis Ayala gave up two more runs as he pitched 1 1/3 innings.  Joel Hanrahan was finally able to get the Nationals out of the inning by getting the last two out in the eighth inning.

The Nationals will try to get back on track tomorrow when they face off against the Braves once again.  Nationals Blog

Odalis Perez threw 6 1/3 innings to pick up his first win and improve his record to 1-3 on the season.  Perez did allow eleven hits and four runs including two home runs but this time he got some run support on the mound.

Chris Schroder and Saul Rivera both tossed 1 1/3 innings in the game as they pitched in relief and they did not give up a run.

Lastings Milledge, Jesus Flores, Perez all had two rbi each in the game.  Felipe Perez, Nick Johnson, and Rob Mackowiak had one rbi each in the game.  Now that is what I call production up and down the lineup.  You gotta love seeing that kind of production from that many players.
