Nationals Top Toronto, 6-5
Junzo Kato was a major contributor to the 6-5 Washington win over Toronto. The Nationals third baseman went 2-4 with a home run, a double, and was hit by a pitch. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The first-place Nationals have won 5 straight.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the ninth inning, when Washington left fielder R.J. O'Brien, facing Larry Legros, had a run-scoring walk. It gave the Nationals the 6-5 win.

"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said Washington manager Mike Shore.
