Bob Cox propelled his team to victory over the River Hills Rockets. The final score was 4-3, Washington. The winning pitcher was Cox, now 2-2. He tossed 6 innings of 3-hit ball, while walking 4 and fanning 3. Mike Ogle converted his 13th save in 14 tries.

Washington used a timely hit from Max Dau to get the win. The pinch hitter stroked a 2-run double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Nationals ahead, 4-2. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it made an impact.

"I don't lose sleep over a loss," said Cox. "But I have better dreams after a win."

Washington is now 57-74, while River Hills is 57-74.
