The Pittsburgh Pirates got a good effort from starter Brant Hurter in defeating the Washington Nationals at PNC Park. The final score was 2-0. The Nationals drop to 8-10, as their stumbling start to the 2025 season continues.

Hurter's performance can only be described as masterful. He notched 8 strikeouts in 7.1 innings while allowing 5 hits. Hurter goes to 1-3 on the year with 17 strikeouts.

"We made a couple of mistakes," said Washington skipper Shane S, "and it cost us."
