Yesterday&#8217;s series clincher marked the return of <strong>Scott Olsen<\/strong> after a few months dealing with shoulder problems. The lefty pitched 6 innings, giving up 3 runs &#8212; a quality start. Olsen, coming off the DL, turned out to be the only effective member of the rotation in this series with Stephen Strasburg shut down and \u00a1LIVAN! ineffective.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nIan Desmond<\/strong> and <strong>Adam Dunn<\/strong> both homered &#8212; was it Dunn&#8217;s final dinger as a Nat? Dunn was knocked in by <strong>Michael Morse<\/strong> right before the Desmond homer in the 2nd. Desmond later scored when <strong>Wil Nieves<\/strong> knocked him and Morse in during the 4th inning. If GWRBI was still a stat, Nieves would have it. Dunn added an insurance run with his 24th homer in the 8th to add an insurance run.<\/p>\n<p>Derek Lowe took the loss for Atlanta. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yurasko.net\/wfy\/2010\/07\/capps-and-trade-nats-send-closer-to-twins-for-minor-league-catcher.html\"><strong>Matt Capps earned his final save<\/strong><\/a> in a  curly W cap.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/wp-dyn\/content\/story\/2010\/07\/30\/ST2010073000174.html?sid=ST2010073000174\"><b>Washington Nationals place Stephen Strasburg on 15-day disabled list<\/b><\/a> &#8211; <i>The Post<\/i><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.csnwashington.com\/07\/29\/10\/Zuckerman-Strasburg-Placed-On-15-Day-DL\/landing_v3.html?blockID=279632&#038;feedID=5685\"><b>Zuckerman: Strasburg Placed On 15-Day DL<\/b><\/a> &#8211; <i>CSN Washington<\/i><br \/>\n<strong>Stephen Strasburg<\/strong> doesn&#8217;t seem too happy to be headed to the DL. It is the right thing to do though, it added the roster flexibility to bring up Olsen. It is retroactive to July 22, so he will probably be back on the mound around the start of the next homestand. I&#8217;d guess August 10 against the Marlins, though he could start at the Los Angeles Dodgers as early as the 7th if my math is correct. That might appeal to Strasburg, a San Diego native who missed the trip there. We shall see.
