Wizards Take Tight Tilt, 8-7
Washington and Colorado took Mother Nature's best shot and still managed to complete their ballgame.

The Washington Wizards powered past the Colorado Rockies, 8-7, at Wizards Park. Nick Markakis went 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 3, to lead the charge. The winner in relief was Erick Ojeda. The left-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. He now owns a record of 4-0.

The Wizards procured the win, in large part because of third baseman Alex Gordon. In the bottom of the tenth, he produced the game-winning run-scoring single.

"This wasn't a good win," said Gordon. "It was a great win."

Washington has a 8-game win streak, while Colorado has lost 3 in a row.
