NATIONALS HISTORY
Sept. 26 (10-5)
2015 – Doug Fister tossed a three-hit shutout in the first game of Washington’s doubleheader against the
Miami Marlins. He struck out nine batters, didn’t issue a walk and tossed just 104 pitches. Anthony Rendon’s
two-run homer in the first inning would be all the scoring Washington needed, eventually winning, 4-0.
