Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg came off the disabled list on Saturday and took the mound for the first time since July 4.
Strasburg returned with a win over Colorado on Saturday, allowing one run over seven innings.
"He didn't look like he was coming off the DL," Rockies right fielder Carlos Gonzalez said, per MLB.com. "His stuff was electric [Saturday]. His fastball was moving a lot with velocity and his breaking ball was really good, too. It's really sharp. It looks like it's going to be around the strike zone and then it goes down quick to the ground. As soon as you see, you already swung the bat and you get yourself in trouble."
Strasburg allowed three hits and didn't walk a batter. He hasn't allowed more than two walks in a game since his first start of the year, on April 9. Strasburg struck out a season-high 12 and improved to 6-5.
