Goldman Slugs Nationals to 7-6 Win
In a tight contest at Colorado Field, the Washington Nationals edged the Colorado Rockies by the score of 7-6. Washington designated hitter Wilburt Goldman, who blasted 2 home runs, was a key contributor. Washington reliever Bobby Pudney picked up the win, upping his record to 10-5. Dave Mahler was saddled with the loss. Washington, at 52-75, holds down last place in the National League East Division.

Ralph Plante provided a timely hit. The Washington right fielder delivered a run-scoring triple in the top of the ninth inning to put the Nationals on top, 7-6. It was his only hit in the game, but he made it count.

In comments to the Washington News, Plante admitted he's been told to improve his work habits. "But," he said, "I know when to take it to another gear."
