Despite a fine performance by center fielder Jackson Merrill, the Washington Nationals lost to the Boston Red Sox, 7-5. Merrill was 2 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. The loss puts Washington at 5-6.

Ryan McKenna came through for Boston when he hit a run-scoring single in the bottom of the seventh. With the bases loaded, he hit a two-strike sinker to right-center field, staking his team to a 6-5 lead.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said McKenna. "And not try to do too much."
