The Nationals even their record with a 2 – 1 win over Seattle as John Lannan outduels Erik Bedard thanks to a pair of unearned runs. It is the latest the Nats have been at .500 since their inaugural season in Washington in 2005; they have reached the mark by going 10-1 over their last 11 games. Meanwhile, in Pittsburgh, the Pirates also reach the magic number as Kevin Correia picks up his 9th win, 5 – 4, over the Orioles, thanks to a costly error by the O’s Blake Davis in his major league debut. Brandon Wood and Michael McKenry both score when Josh Harrison’s 5th-inning ground ball with two outs passes between the second baseman’s legs. Closer Joel Hanrahan remains perfect for the season, registering his 20th save in as many opportunities. Pittsburgh has hovered around the .500 mark all year so far, in a bid to end an 18-year streak of losing seasons.
