The Nationals have now won their last five games against the Cardinals, tied for their longest winning streak against the Cards since moving to Washington in 2005 (also won five straight from 06/14/2011 - 08/31/2012).

Bryce Harper's homer yesterday marked the seventh time this season he has homered to either tie the game or give his team the lead, the most in the NL this year.

With yesterday's defeat, the Cardinals are now just 3-7 (.300) in one-run games this year, the third-worst record in baseball behind the Braves (2-8, .200) and Blue Jays (4-10, .286).

Matt Holliday is one of two players in MLB history to total at least 425 doubles and 100 stolen bases in his first 12 seasons in the majors, along with Jeff Bagwell.

Max Scherzer has allowed 13 runs in the month of May this season, and all 13 of those runs have scored via home runs.

Jaime Garcia's career winning percentage of .604 (55-36) is the second highest all-time by a lefty born outside the United States (minimum 100 starts), behind Venezuela's Johan Santana (.641, 139-78).

HP - Porter, 1B - Carlson, 2B - Kellogg, 3B - Tumpane

The Washington Nationals have set a franchise record by winning Stephen Strasburg's last 14 starts. Now he'd like to break a pair for himself.
The longest winning streak and best start to a season are those club marks within reach for Strasburg on Sunday when he faces the visiting St. Louis Cardinals.
