The New York Yankees topped the Washington Nationals by a score of 5-4. Leading the way was left fielder Russ Shambaugh. Shambaugh was 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Yankees. Joel Pacheco recorded the save for New York, his 26th of the season. New York is in 4th place in the American League East Division with a record of 55-77.

Adriaan Pieters, the 34-year old right fielder , had a direct impact on the outcome. Pieters contributed a run-scoring hit-by-pitch in the top of the eighth inning to put New York up, 5-4.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Pieters.
