Braves Win at Washington, 6-4
Atlanta rode a decent outing from starter Marco Estrada to victory over the Washington Nationals at Nationals Park. The final score was 6-4. In 5.2 innings, Estrada surrendered 4 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 2. He allowed 4 runs. At 42-70, the Braves find themselves in last place in the National League East Division.

It could have been a different outcome for Atlanta, had it not been for Leury Garcia, the 27-year old third baseman . Garcia contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the third inning to put Atlanta up, 2-0.

"We'll pop the top on a cold one and get back to work tomorrow," Estrada said.
