2007 – Jason Bergmann struck out nine in leading the Washington Nationals (61-77) to a 6-3 win over the Florida Marlins (60-78). Wily Mo Pena homered, and Austin Kearns went 3-for-4 with an RBI for the Nationals, who moved one game ahead of Florida at the bottom of the NL East standings.
2008 – Cristian Guzman set a franchise season record with his eighth consecutive multi-hit game. In his last at bat he hit bases-clearing double in the decisive eighth inning. The Washington Nationals (54-86) went on to beat the Philadelphia Phillies (76-64) 9-7. The loss put the Phillies three games behind the division leading New York Mets.
2011 – Ryan Zimmerman broken-bat fly ball with one out in the ninth dropped into right field for a single, driving in two runs and giving the Washington Nationals (64-73) a 8-7 victory over the New York Mets (67-70,).
2012 – The Washington Nationals 82-52) beat the Chicago Cubs (51-83) 2-1. The win was the Nats 82nd victory of the season and gave the team their first winning season since the team moved from Montreal.
2013 – Wilson Ramos hit a three-run homer and Corey Brown also went deep to back Gio Gonzalez, helping the Nationals (70-68) beat the Philadelphia Phillies (63-76) 9-6. FYI, Denard Span extended his hitting streak to a career-high 16 games.
