    After Adam LaRoche's two-run homer in the eighth tied the game, and Wilson Ramos' ground-rule double in the ninth won it, Washington Nationals manager Matt Williams called his club "tenacious."

    Kevin Frandsen, whose RBI single in the eighth started Washington's rally from a three-run deficit, went with the word "relentless."
