LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- Manager Dusty Baker put it best after watching his Nationals run past the Braves, 11-1, at Champion Stadium on Saturday night: The team was firing on all cylinders.
"I was pleased with our overall game," Baker said.
Washington collected 14 hits, highlighted by Michael Taylor and Trea Turner, who went a combined 5-for-6 with an RBI and four runs scored. Right-hander Tanner Roark led the way on the mound, pitching four innings and allowing a run on three hits.
"Tanner pitched pretty well. He didn't have great stuff like he had the last two times, but that's a sign of what you can do when you don't have your best stuff," Baker said.
