Washington: Stephen Strasburg pitched seven scoreless innings for his 14th win, Trea Turner had three RBIs and Daniel Murphy homered as the Washington Nationals beat the Cleveland Indians 4-1 Wednesday.
Strasburg (14-1) bounced back from his only loss of the season to hold the American League Central-leading Indians to three hits.
The right-hander also had seven strikeouts and two walks in the victory.
Cleveland starter Carlos Carrasco (7-4) surrendered three runs on as many hits in six innings to take the loss.
Meanwhile, Giancarlo Stanton drilled a two-run homer and Don Kelly hit two triples to lead Miami over Philadelphia 11-1.
The Marlins took two out of three games from the Phillies and retained their position as the second and final wild card team in the National League play-off race.
Stanton’s homer, his 22nd of the season, was part of a three-run first inning for Miami. The blast to left field gave Stanton 525 career RBIs, moving him past former Marlins star Miguel Cabrera for third place on the franchise list.
