Nationals Blast Braves, Win 11-4

0:00On April 22, Washington Nationals just dropped 11 runs on the Atlanta Braves, winning 4-11 and snapping that 6-game streak on Tuesday night. James Wood crushed a homer and drew four walks, while Luis Garcia Jr. ripped four hits to lead the charge. Nationals jumped out fast, scoring three before Atlanta starter, Ronaldo Lopez even got an out, and he was gone early in the second. Foster Griffin stepped up for Washington, giving up just three runs over six innings to keep things locked down. Braves fought back with homers from Drake Baldwin and Eli White, cutting the lead to one at times, but Garcia kept delivering, including an RBI single. In the fifth that padded the margin, things got wild in the eighth when a funky rundown led Atlanta score, but Curtis Meade answered right back with a three run blast blowing it open to. 11-4, Wood's night marked just the second time a nap's done that homer, plus four walks combo since moving from Montreal.
