The Washington (DSL) Nationals topped the Chicago N (DSL) Cubs, 12-4, with first baseman José Rodríguez playing a big role. Rodríguez was 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Nationals in the win. José Saucedo earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed 2 runs on 4 hits in 2 innings. His record is now 2-0. Washington (DSL) now sits in third place in the Boca Chica South Division at 12-15.

Willie Grimes had a big 2-run home run for the Nationals in the bottom of the second inning. With Washington (DSL) leading 2-0 and a runner on 1st, he got a changeup from Brendan Hartwig and swatted a home run to left-center. It was his 2nd home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Nationals ahead, 4-0.

"We take it day by day here," said Grimes, "and today was a good one for us."
