Nationals Suffer 5-2 Loss to Baltimore (DSL)
The rain came, as predicted, but the Baltimore (DSL) Orioles 2 and Washington (DSL) Nationals were able to complete their ballgame.

The Baltimore (DSL) Orioles 2 got a stellar performance from pitcher Bob Badger, who handcuffed the Washington (DSL) offense en route to a win, 5-2, at Baseball City Complex. Baltimore (DSL) reliever Bennie Henley picked up the win, raising his record to 2-1. Desi Muller was tagged with the loss. Raúl Hernández earned the save, his 3rd.

The Nationals had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Orioles 2 going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 22-year old catcher Jean-Marie Ménard came to the plate. Ménard hit a 2-run double on a first pitch fastball from Washington (DSL) hurler Desi Muller. It was Ménard's 1st double of the year.

"This level of focus will win us a lot of ballgames," Ménard said after the game.

With the win, the Orioles 2 have a record of 22-25.
