Losing Trend Continues for New York
The 5-4 Washington win over New York was due largely to Bruce Brosnahan. The Eagles center fielder was 2-3 with 2 singles and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Pedro Nunez, the winning pitcher, improved to 9-15. He pitched 8 innings, giving up 8 hits and 4 runs, while striking out 3 and walking 4. The losses continue to mount for New York, which has now dropped 7 in a row.

A key moment came with two out in the top of the second. That's when Brosnahan hit a changeup from Bruce Owen for a 2-run single, putting Washington up, 4-0.

Said losing manager Timothy Widholm: "The only way to escape your past is to be better than your past."
