After looking like the Nats were putting together a 9th inning rally, the Nats leave the tying run on base in their 4-2 loss to the Rockies. The Nationals now have a 41-30 record and remain in first place in the NL East.
Gio Gonzalez will lead the Nationals tomorrow night in game 2 of the 4-game series in Colorado. First pitch is at 8:40 PM.
