Brian Dozier and Matt Adams provided the pre-4th of July fireworks last night, with Dozier hitting a two-run home run in the sixth to put the Nationals up 2-0, and Adams hitting one out in the eighth to give the home team some breathing room in what ended up a 3-1 win for Washington.
Dozier went 2 for 3 with a double, the home run, and a walk, reaching base in three of his four plate appearances on the night. Adams, who homered off Wei-Yin Chen last week in Miami, got Chen again last night in the nation’s capital.
