The Washington Nationals locked up a win at River Hills Grounds, knocking off the River Hills Rockets, 4-1. On the mound for Washington was right-hander J.D. Smith. He played a major role in the triumph. The losing skid has reached 8 games for River Hills.

Smith, a native of Dyersburg, Tennessee, was dealing all game. He kept River Hills hitters off-balance, while giving the Nationals 8.2 quality innings. Smith threw 92 pitches, allowing 3 hits and striking out 6.

"J.D.'s not intimidated by who's stepping into the batter's box," said Washington manager John Galenski.
