Washington Beats Kansas City, 5-2
The Washington Nationals racked up a win at Kauffman Stadium, bumping off the Kansas City Royals, 5-2. Steve Moss, who started for Washington, pitched effectively for his team. Moss got the win, improving to 10-7. He gave up 5 hits and walked 2 over 7 innings. He allowed 1 run. Robbie McJannett, who is a two-time All-Star, nailed down the save.

Jeremy Austin had a big run-scoring double for the Nationals in the top of the third inning. With Washington leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he got a fastball from Mike Long, the 33rd overall pick in the 2020 draft, and swatted a double to right-center. It was his 38th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Nationals ahead, 2-0.

"We did enough to win," said Austin.

The triumph puts Washington at 68-51 for the season.
