GAME 2: “The Price, is wrong”

Game 2 (Price vs Roark)

The Red Sox looked to extend their lead with left David Price on the hill,Ryan_Zimmerman while the Nats countered with Joe Ross. After a scoreless two innings, the Nationals broke through in the bottom of the third with Jason Werth blasting  a solo shot to give the home team a 1-0 lead. In the bottom of the fourth, the Nationals struck again. The Nationals strung together a three singles to load the bases to start the inning, then Trea Turner grounded out to score one, Ryan Zimmerman singled to score another, and Chris Heisey hit a sac fly to score the third Nationals run. After Anthony Rendon walked, Price was sent to the showers. Tazawa replaced him and struck out Werth to end the threat. With Ross facing usage limits, Nats manager Schneider went to the bullpen early, and a succession of Nationals relievers held the potent Red Sox offense to one base runner for the last five innings to preserve the shutout.

All tied up at 1-1.
