With the hometown crowd on the edge of their seats, Washington Nationals came

from behind to top Detroit Tigers, 5 to 4.



Washington had the game winning rally in the bottom of the 9th inning with 3

runs on 4 hits. Roy Sievers kicked off the action when he lined a base-hit.

Two outs later Jerry Schoonmaker stepped up to the plate and he delivered a

single. Jose Valdivielso then stroked a one-base hit bringing in a run.

Harmon Killebrew was up next and he drew a walk to load the bases. Eddie

Yost stepped into the box and doubled making Washington the victors to the

delight of the home town faithful. Washington managed 9 in their victory.



Chuck Stobbs(6-9) got credit for the victory, pitching 1 inning and allowing 1

run. Frank Lary(9-12) absorbed the loss. 'That was exciting!,' Yost said.

'I would have paid money to watch this one.'
