Overview

• Washington erased a 3-0 first-inning deficit when Daylen Lile’s eighth-inning double, misplayed by center fielder Oneil Cruz for his 11th error, allowed James Wood to score from first for a 4-3 lead.
• Rookie Clayton Beeter recorded his first major league save by striking out Bryan Reynolds with runners on the corners in the ninth.
• Pittsburgh finished a 1-5 trip at 65-85, locking in a seventh straight losing season and the franchise’s 29th losing campaign in 33 years.
• A day earlier, rookie Bubba Chandler rebounded in his second MLB start with six innings of two-hit, one-run ball (seven strikeouts, no walks, 81 pitches) as late hits from Andrew McCutchen, Nick Yorke and Jared Triolo ended a seven-game skid.
• Sunday’s starters were limited as clubs manage workloads: Mike Burrows exited after 4 1/3 innings for Pittsburgh, while Cade Cavalli completed five for Washington, which has won nine of its last 13.
