Bergmann Gives Up Three Taters in Loss to Giants
Nationals SP Jason Bergmann was plagued by three homers during a 6-3 loss to the Giants Tuesday. Fred Lewis hit his first career leadoff home run when he connected to right on a 1-0 pitch from Bergmann (1-7). Bengie Molina added a two-run homer three batters later and then hit a solo homer off Bergmann leading off the fourth. Bergmann allowed five runs (four earned) and six hits in five innings. He didn’t issue a walk and struck out one. Bergmann is winless in 11 starts since beating the Mets in New York on May 15. Tuesday was the first time in six starts he allowed more than two earned runs. Bergmann has been pretty solid since his recall in mid-May and has run into some unfortunate luck pitching for Washington. For that, he remains a low-end Fantasy SP. His next scheduled start is for Sunday against the Dodgers. (CBS Sports)
