The Washington Nationals had to reckon with Oakland Athletics hurler George Kirby. Kirby overwhelmed the opposition in the 7-1 Athletics triumph. The winner in relief was Jordan Hicks. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 1.1 innings. He now owns a record of 1-2. Clay Holmes recorded the save, his 1st.

Royce Lewis cracked a home run off Max Scherzer in the bottom of the seventh. His solo blast put the Athletics on top, 2-1. In all, Lewis had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 4.

"George's a gamer," said Oakland manager Brad P. "Glad he's on our side."

The Nationals, now 4-11, continue their slow start.
