The Chicago Cubs locked up a win at Nationals Park, knocking off the Washington Nationals, 4-2. On the mound for Chicago was right-hander Kevin Gausman. He played a major role in the triumph. In 6.2 innings, Gausman surrendered 4 hits, while striking out 7 and walking 1. He allowed 2 runs. The National League Central Division-leading Cubs are 33-28.

Julio Rodriguez came through with a big-time hit for Chicago. The center fielder smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to give his team the lead, 4-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"It's about putting our team in the best position to win ballgames," said Gausman.
