The Brewers had a rough start to the game, giving up four runs in the bottom of the fourth inning to give the Nationals a 4-0 lead. The Nationals would stretch the lead to 5-0 before the Brewers would score a run in the top of the fifth inning. The Nationals would get the run back in the bottom of the fifth to make it 6-2. The Brewers bats finally came alive in the seventh and eighth inning to cut the Nationals lead to 6-4, but it was too little too late as the Nationals closed it out in the ninth to secure the win.
