Big Day for Soto in 11-8 Nationals Win
Juan Soto was a vital contributor to the 11-8 Washington victory over St. Louis. The Nationals left fielder went 2-4 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 5. The win gives Washington a season record of 55-38.

The Nationals got a big at-bat from first baseman Eric Thames. For the game, Thames was 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the fourth, with the bases loaded, he stroked a grand slam home run. His 11th home run of the season gave Washington a 9-6 lead.

"It was a nice win for our side today," said Nationals manager Dave Martinez. "Not perfect, but we'll take it."
