Speed and pitching lift the Nationals to a 3
WASHINGTON (AP) — Trevor Williams struck out eight in five scoreless innings, and Washington stole four bases in a 3-0 victory over Corbin Burnes and the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday night, lifting the Nationals above .500 for the first time since July 2021.
Burnes (3-2) allowed three runs and five hits in 6 1/3 innings, striking out six with three walks. He was the first Baltimore starter in four games to allow any scoring at all, and it was the first time in eight games the Orioles allowed more than two runs as a team.
The Orioles lost for just the second time in eight games, and they were shut out both times. Williams (4-0) yielded two hits and no walks, and four relievers pitched an inning apiece, permitting one hit total. Kyle Finnegan worked a perfect ninth for his 12th save in 13 chances.
“I think we believe that we’re a good team, and we’re definitely playing like it,” Williams said. “We’re hoping to continue that momentum.”
