Nats Nightly

Washington Nationals' right-hander Joe Ross threw six scoreless before giving up a run on a solo home run and the Nats' starter got all the run-support he would need on a two-run home run by Michael Taylor in the second as the Nationals cruised to a 6-1 win over Taylor Jungmann and the Milwaukee Brewers.
