Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg earned a win Tuesday, allowing one earned run on three hits and one walk in eight innings while striking out three in his team's 8-1 victory over the Diamondbacks.
Strasburg (10-10) needed just 95 pitches to blow through eight innings, locking things down after serving up a home run in the first inning. It was his second straight excellent start after a seven-run implosion on Aug. 8. Strasburg owns a 3.41 ERA and 198:38 K:BB ratio in 171 1/3 innings. He's scheduled to face the Giants Sunday.
