The Chicago Cubs got a sterling performance from pitcher Shota Imanaga, but the Washington Nationals still prevailed, 4-3. Imanaga threw 7.0 innings of 6-hit ball. Mason Thompson earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.1 innings. He upped his record to 3-1. The win puts Washington at 44-68.

Dylan Crews was the walk-off hero for Washington. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Nationals right fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"It feels good to get this one," Crews told the Washington Gazette.
