Nationals Lose Despite Valiant Effort by Arp
The Boston Red Sox had to overcome a big game from Washington third baseman Kirk Arp to leave Nationals Park with a victory. And they did, winning 11-9. Arp was 4-5 with a home run and 3 singles, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 3. Jon Mercado, now 2-1, was credited with the win. He allowed no runs on no hits, while striking out 1 and walking 0. The first-place Red Sox have won 4 straight games.

Boston right fielder David Price Jr. delivered a 2-run double in the top of the ninth. Overall, he went 3 for 5, picking up 1 home run, 1 single, and 1 double. He scored 2 runs and knocked in 3.

"I like to lead by example," said Price Jr.. "I'm glad I could contribute to a good win."
