Nats stop streak and beat the Braves, 3-2

Jordan Zimmermann turns out to be the stopper of the Nats three game losing streak in his first MLB start . He pitched 6 innings and only gave up 2 runs. Kip Wells, Joe Beimel, Garret Mock and Joel Hanrahan closed out the deal for Zimmermann. It was Hanrahan first save of the young season.

The offense was lead by Elijah Dukes and Jesus Flores who each had two hits apiece. Flores also had two RBI.

Yesterday box score is the following:
