Nationals Edge Gandil in Second Inning Rally

The game hinged on the second inning as Gardner singled, Yerkes reached Shaw, and a slow play at second allowed Gandil to throw out Yerkes. Hooper scored on a passed ball, Lewis delivered a run with a single, and Gardner sacrificed to set up further scoring. Leonard held the Nationals to two runs until late, with mistimed plays and a late rally failing to overcome the damage from that key frame.
