Garza’s poor start too much to overcome, Brewers fall 7-4 to Nats

WP: Tanner Roark (8-5) LP: Matt Garza (1-2) Save: Jonathon Papelbon (17) Homeruns: Mil, none; Wash, Bryce Harper (18), Jose Lobaton (2), Ryan Zimmerman (12)

I was ready to write this one off going into the third, after Matt Garza got hit hard over the first two and put the Brewers into a 4-0 deficit. Tanner Roark had shut out the Brewers last series over seven innings, and had retired the first six he faced easily.

And Roark did strike out the side in the third. His problem was that he gave up five singles and four runs to tie things up at 4-4.
