Nationals manager Davey Johnson told reporters after Friday's game that starter Stephen Strasburg has a strained right oblique.

Strasburg told The Washington Post that his oblique has been "nagging" him for the past couple of starts. The 24-year-old was unable to make it past two innings Friday against the Braves. He is scheduled to fly back to Washington D.C. to be examined by a team doctor, according to Comcast SportsNet Washington.
