Ogasawara allowed three runs on four hits and a walk while striking out two over four innings in a no-decision versus the Brewers on Saturday.

Ogasawara threw 56 pitches (34 strikes) in his second major-league start. It was a better performance than his debut against Boston last week -- he kept the ball in the yard and wasn't responsible for the loss, as the Nationals covered his poor fourth inning with three runs over the final two frames. The southpaw has now allowed seven runs across 6.2 innings in the majors, adding a 4:1 K:BB. It remains to be seen if Ogasawara will stick in the rotation after the All-Star break, but the Nationals have a spot to let him work if he can prove himself up to the challenge.
