Nationals 1; Angels 0

Colon goes back to getting the Escobar treatment. He was terrific, but the offense returned to their mid-May form and couldn't pick him up. Steve Finley continues to disappoint, picking the absolute worst time to strike out. Roenicke finally made the right decision, and in retrospect, with Erstad running, he probably would have been better off making the wrong one. As for Bengie, at least he didn't hit into a double play.

McPherson is sliding a bit again, but his defense has still been excellent, a nice surprise.

Not much more to say about this one, really. No fireworks, just good pitching. Three more games and I can go back to not giving a shit about the NL East again.
