Yadiel Hernández homered to right field in the second (for the first time on a breaking ball this season), and drove in two runs with a bases-loaded single in the third, making it a 5-1 lead in the Washington Nationals’ favor at that point in what ended up a 12-6 win over the Toronto Blue Jays in the nation’s capital.
Fedde vs the Jays: Erick Fedde went four innings on 68 pitches last time out, in the second game of a doubleheader with the New York Mets, giving up two runs on six hits in a 5-4 loss in which he received no decision.
