Nunnally Slugs Senators to 10-2 Win
Jon Nunnally was instrumental in his team's 10-2 triumph over the Oakland Athletics. The center fielder was 2 for 3 with 2 home runs and 2 walks, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 3 for the Washington Senators. John Burkett picked up the win, improving his season record to 15-7. He struck out 6 in 8.2 innings. The first-place Senators, at 81-46, now lead their division by 4 games.

Nunnally had a key at-bat for Washington early in the game. With a runner on 1st, he hit a 2-run home run. It was his 27th home run of the season and gave Washington an early 2-0 lead.

"I like our moxie," said Senators manager Alexander Cumana.
