Lane Thomas capped a big series with a home run and three RBIs as the Washington Nationals swept a three-game set against the host Cincinnati Reds, winning 6-3 on Sunday.
CJ Abrams and Thomas hit the first two pitches of the game, and the first two of right-hander Lyon Richardson's career, for a pair of 400-foot homers. After the Nationals received a walk from Joey Meneses and a single from Keibert Ruiz, to put the first four hitters on base, they made it 4-0 in the opening inning on Jake Alu's single.
Abrams finished with four of Washington's 10 hits, stole two bases, scored twice and drove in a run. Alu had two hits, a walk, a stolen base and drove in two runs. Cincinnati got solo home runs from Joey Votto and TJ Friedl to trim their deficit to 4-3 after three innings, but Nationals starter Jake Irvin pitched out of further trouble after Cincinnati scored two runs in the second.
