Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg was borderline dominant at times Friday, in a 9-2 win over the Rangers.
Strasburg wasn't quite sharp in the early innings, allowing two unearned runs in the second. That was all the Rangers could manage in the outing, as he made it through six innings allowing no earned runs on six hits and a walk, while striking out nine batters.
Strasburg tossed his eighth quality start in a row, and pushed his record to 4-4 in 12 starts. He carries a 3.15 ERA into hext next outing, set for Thursday against the Phillies.
