The Potomac Nationals defeated the Myrtle Beach Pelicans, 9-5. Doing his part was right fielder Chris Sampson, who went 1-3 with a home run and 3 walks, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. Steve McGuffie notched the win in relief. The left-hander allowed no runs on 3 hits in 2.1 innings. His record now sits at 1-0. The Nationals go to 16-29 with the win.

With Potomac trailing 5-3 in the top of the fourth, Sampson hit a slider from Víctor Trujillo for a 3-run home run. It was his 8th home run of the season and put the Nationals ahead, 6-5.

"I was just going up there trying to see good pitches, that was about it," said Sampson.
