Luis Garcia Jr. powers Nationals to 6-4 win over Orioles

On June 28, 2026, the Washington Nationals defeated the Baltimore Orioles 6-4 at Oriole Park. Luis Garcia Jr. hit two home runs and drove in five runs, accounting for three of Washington’s seven hits. He homered in the fifth and again in the seventh, with a pivotal RBI double in the third inning.

The Orioles’ offense was highlighted by two-run blasts from Pete Alonso and Jackson Holliday. Washington’s bullpen, despite allowing two runs, held on thanks to PJ Poulin’s two hitless innings for the save. The victory snapped the Nationals’ four‑game losing streak and gave them their first consecutive wins since a prior four‑game streak earlier in June.

Key pitching notes: Orioles starter Kyle Bradish gave up four runs (three earned) in four innings, walking five batters. Washington starter Foster Griffin tossed seven innings, allowing one unearned run and striking out nine. The game marked a notable performance for Garcia, who had also homered in the previous night’s game.
