WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Landen Roupp pitched into the seventh inning, Jung Hoo Lee had two hits and scored two runs, and the San Francisco Giants beat Washington 4-0 on Friday night, ending the Nationals’ five-game winning streak.<\/p>\n
Roupp (3-3) allowed five hits, struck out two and walked two before leaving after allowing a double and a walk to start the seventh.<\/p>\n
Nationals starter MacKenzie Gore (2-5) also pitched in the seventh. After walking Lee to open the inning, Gore grimaced following a 1-0 pitch to Matt Chapman. Manager Dave Martinez and the trainer came out and, after a brief discussion, Gore left the game.<\/p>\n
Gore said his left leg tightened up after he was hit by a comebacker earlier in the game.<\/p>\n
Jackson Rutledge came on and walked Chapman to put runners on first and second with no outs. Wilmer Flores hit into a double play, but Willy Adames singled to score Lee from third and give the Giants a 1-0 lead. Rutledge then walked three straight hitters to force in San Francisco’s second run.<\/p>\n
Gore was charged with a run and two hits. He struck out nine and walked three while throwing 91 pitches. He bounced back from a start in which he allowed two runs and 10 hits in 3 2\/3 innings while striking out nine in a no-decision against the Orioles.<\/p>\n
The Giants scored two more runs in the eighth on Wilmer Flores’ RBI single and a wild pitch by Andrew Chafin with the bases loaded.<\/p>\n
Nationals outfielder Daylen Lile went 1 for 2 in his major league debut.<\/p>\n
Key moment<\/p>\n
Randy Rodriguez replaced Roupp with the tying runs on base in the seventh and struck out Robert Hassell III and got Jose Tena to ground into a double play.<\/p>\n
Key stat<\/p>\n
After starting the year with a 5.10 ERA in six games in April, Roupp has a 1.64 ERA in four starts this month.<\/p>\n
