The Washington Nationals avoided a sweep by the Cincinnati Reds by winning 3-2, thanks to a solo home run by Ildemaro Vargas in the bottom of the fifth inning off Cincinnati Reds pitcher Nick Lodolo.

The win helped the Nationals snap their MLB-record 43 consecutive games without a starting pitcher earning a win. The last win that a starting pitcher had was on July 6, 2022, when RHP Josiah Gray pitched to the win.

Patrick Corbin pitched well this afternoon, going six innings, giving up one earned run on four hits, and he struck out five Reds. Kyle Finnegan got his eighth save of the season, moving his ERA to 3.12. Corbin pitched a total of 82 pitches with 52 strikes.

On the offense, the Nationals catcher Riley Adams got an RBI (6) single that scored Joey Meneses. Talking about Meneses, he extended his hitting streak to eight games with two hits during the game. The Nationals went 1-4 with runners in scoring position and only left four on base throughout the game. This season, Nelson Cruz got his 62nd RBI, and Vargas got his 11th RBI.
