Nationals
Stephen Strasburg outdueled Matt Cain, but a shaky bullpen couldn't hold the lead for Washington as the Giants came back to win 4-2 in 10 innings Tuesday night.
The showdown between aces got off to a shaky start before materializing as promised, but the a blown save by Rafael Soriano and a walkoff home run by Pablo Sandoval wasted Strasburg's effort.
The Braves are starting to heat up, while the Phillies are falling hard. Here is how the Nats' rivals fared over the last week.
