LP: Kenshin Kawakami (6-12)
Ryan Braun lofted a first inning sacrifice fly to score Andy Gresham. Yovani Gallardo started the game off on absolute fire, striking out the first six batters he faced, and eight of the first nine. The Brewers scored three more runs to support him in the third inning. Gresham drove in a run in the sixth and then Prince Fielder followed in the seventh with a three-run homer. Through 8 innings, Gallardo had tallied an amazing 17 strikeouts, entering the ninth with a chance of tying the MLB record of 20 strikeouts in a game. Ian Desmond lined out to lead off the inning, putting away any hopes of tying the record. It was still an absolutely dominating performance, as he allowed just three hits and no walks during his 17 strikeout shutout.

Third basemen Kyle Smith drove in a run for the Nationals in the first as he continued to do his best Ryan Zimmerman impression at the plate. George Kottaras tied things at 1 with a solo homer in the fourth. The game stayed 1-1 until catcher Derek Norris hit a three-run homer in the eighth to put Washington out ahead by 3. Cody Ross followed with a two-run shot to put the game seemingly out of reach. However, the Nationals bullpen fell apart in the 9th, allowing four runs to score, setting up a 1 out, runners on the corner situation for Andy Gresham. Gresham, though, hit a hard grounder to third that was turned into a double play, ending the comeback and the game.
