Freeman homers twice, but Braves outslugged

Freeman, who continues to be a nemesis for Washington, hit his third and fourth homers of the spring and drove in three runs. His first blast came in the first inning, a solo shot off right-hander Stephen Strasburg. Four innings later, Freeman hit a two-run shot off Yusmeiro Petit.

Strasburg pitched four innings, allowing two runs on five hits and struck out four. He never had an easy inning, allowing two baserunners in three of the four innings he pitched. The second run he allowed scored on a sacrifice fly by Adonis Garcia.
