WASHINGTON (AP) — Dylan Crews hit an RBI single with two out in the 10th inning to give the Washington Nationals a 5-4 win over the Miami Marlins on Saturday.
Miami pitchers had set down 21 consecutive Nationals before Michael Petersen (3-4) walked José Tena and Daylen Lile in the 10th inning to push automatic runner Nasim Nuñez to third. Crews then singled to the left of diving second baseman Xavier Edwards to win it.
Orlando Ribalta (1-2) pitched a scoreless 10th for his first major league victory in 70 career appearances.
Washington has won three in a row for the first time since Aug. 7-9.
Washington starter Cade Cavalli left the game after four hitless innings after he was hit in the right ankle by a 93 mph grounder from Javier Sanoja. Cavalli recovered to throw out Sanoja but limped back to the dugout. The team said the right-hander had right calf discomfort.
