The Besntowners came out of the gate fast and furious putting up four runs in the opening innings. The Sox were still up 6-2 after a George Scott blast. But the team from our Nations capital managed to tie the game in the 7th. The home club pulled back ahead only for Johnny Wyatt to blow inning the 9th. The relief corps failed again in extras as the Nats snatched a victory away from Boston.
