Nats Nightly

Stephen Strasburg threw six scoreless frames for the Washington Nationals, working with a 1-0 lead over the Atlanta Braves and the Nats added two runs late, setting left-handed reliever Felipe Rivero up for a two-inning outing out of the bullpen with which he earned his first major league save. 3-0 Nationals final in Turner Field. It was another strong start for Strasburg, who finished his 2015 campaign strong after a slow, injury-hampered start.
