Kelley, Nats bullpen holds its ground late

WASHINGTON -- It was just three scoreless innings, but the Nationals can come away encouraged by the performance of their bullpen in Friday's 3-2 walk-off victory against the Phillies. Koda Glover, Blake Treinen and Shawn Kelley -- coincidentally the three pitchers who they considered to be the closer this spring -- each tossed a scoreless inning to give the Nationals time to make a come-from-behind victory in 10 innings.

"Our bullpen looked like our bullpen tonight," manager Dusty Baker said.

Nationals relievers have endured some early struggles to begin the 2017 season.
