Harper's 17th HR sparks Nationals past Orioles 3-2

BALTIMORE -- Bryce Harper hit his NL-leading 17th home run, Mark Reynolds added a solo shot and the Washington Nationals beat the Baltimore Orioles 3-2 Tuesday night to extend their road winning streak to nine games.

Harper finished with three hits, Reynolds scored twice and 19-year-old rookie Juan Soto had his first three-hit game for Washington.

The Nationals' nine-game run on the road matches their longest since moving from Montreal before the 2005 season.

Washington has won five straight overall and will seek to complete a three-game sweep of its neighboring interleague rival on Wednesday night.
