Nationals’ Win Is Bittersweet – The Post
Shawn Hill had a 5K and a not hitter going through five innings, but he surgically repaired elbow starting giving him problems, so he will probably head to the DL.

Hitting coach Mitchell Page, who has a much publized alcohol problem, has been granted leave from the team for personal reasons.

The win was much needed for the sturggling club though.
