Nationals 5-3 over Dodgers on Matt den Dekker's eighth inning home run

The Washington Nationals and Los Angeles Dodgers finished up their suspended game this afternoon. It was all tied up at 3-3 in the eighth when Matt den Dekker hit a pinch hit home run to right field for a two-run blast that made it 5-3 Nats.

The third power failure of the night on Friday night in Nationals Park led to the series opener of the three-game set between the Washington Nationals and Los Angeles Dodgers being suspended.

A bank of lights down the third base line kept going out, leaving the field of play too dark to continue.
