Jacob Webb was called on to replace him. Webb allowed a single to Nathaniel Lowe and then Josh Bell beat out the back end of a double play relay attempt to score a second run in the inning. It tied the game at two. After the game, Latz had a small bandage on his thumb, but said he would be fine.

Michael Soroka struck out seven in six sparkling innings, and the Washington Nationals beat Patrick Corbin and the Texas Rangers 2-0.

WASHINGTON - The game between the Texas Rangers and Washington Nationals, scheduled for 12:35 p.m. CT Sunday, was delayed by inclement weather. A line of showers was approaching Nationals Park around the scheduled game time, according to Nationals officials, leading to the delay.

Alex Call had finally done it. In the eighth inning, he worked a walk — the only free pass the Washington Nationals would earn Saturday. The moment was worthy of a celebration, so Call flipped his bat and jogged to first base as Robert Hassell III moved into scoring position.
