Rookie James Wood's 3-run homer gives the Nationals a 5-2 win and a 3-game sweep of the Reds
WASHINGTON (AP) — James Wood hit a tiebreaking, three-run homer with two outs in the eighth inning, and the Washington Nationals completed a three-game sweep of the Cincinnati Reds with a 5-2 victory on Sunday. Wood, a 21-year-old rookie and the Nationals’ top prospect, sent a first-pitch fastball from Justin Wilson 405 feet the opposite way to left field. His second homer since his debut on July 1 gave the Nationals their fifth win in six games. “Electric. He’s something special,” Nationals starter Jake Irvin said. “And I’m excited to be a part of it. Excited for him.” After general manager Mike Rizzo made clear on Friday that Washington is still in rebuilding mode, the Nationals (47-53) drew even in the wild-card standings with Cincinnati, which began the second half hoping to make a playoff push. The Reds have lost four straight and fell into last place in the NL Central.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Jacob Young hit a tiebreaking RBI single in the eighth inning, Lane Thomas bolstered his trade stock with a run-scoring double and the Washington Nationals rallied past the Cincinnati Reds 5-4 on Saturday night. Derek Law (6-2) pitched two scoreless innings on an outstanding night for the Nationals’ bullpen after MacKenzie Gore’s shortest start of the season. Washington (46-53) has taken two straight from Cincinnati (47-52), damaging the Reds’ hopes of remaining relevant in the NL playoff race. “That’s a good team over there. They’re in the hunt,” Law said. “It just goes to show that we should be in the hunt.” Ildemaro Vargas doubled leading off the eighth against Justin Wilson (1-2). With two outs, Young lined Wilson’s first pitch through the left side to score Vargas from third.

Game 99 lineups: Nats vs. Reds
Though it got way more interesting in the top of the ninth than it needed to be, the Nationals’ 8-5 victory over the Reds on Friday night was a very good way for them to open the second half of the season. They got sustained offense, including a pair of home runs from two positions where they’ve desperately needed more offense. They got a very good start out of Patrick Corbin. And they actually supported him for a change and earned him his first win since May 10.
