At soggy Nationals Park, Washington blanked St. Louis, 3-0, behind a go-ahead home run by CJ Abrams and six strong innings from Trevor Williams.
Trevor Williams blanked St. Louis for six-plus innings, yielding five hits and no walks while striking out four across 75 pitches. The Cardinals’ Miles Mikolas matched Williams aside from Abrams’s homer, a solo shot in the fifth, and an RBI double by Jeimer Candelario in the sixth. After a Lars Nootbaar single opened the St. Louis seventh, Thompson took over for Williams, then Finnegan took over for Thompson, then Hunter Harvey shut the door in the ninth.
“When you see rain in the forecast, it’s easy to shut your mind off and think you’re going to get rained out,” Williams said. “But for everyone to come and play and be locked in from the first pitch was huge for us.”Before the series finale, a pair of injuries forced the Nationals to shuffle their roster. Center fielder Victor Robles returned to the 10-day injured list with back spasms. Edwards landed on the 15-day IL with right shoulder inflammation.
