Nationals Rally to Tally 4-2 Win
Starting pitcher Tim Simmons was a major factor in the 4-2 Ottawa Nationals triumph over the Asheville Highlanders. The 8th-place Nationals improved to 37-38.

Ottawa took a 4-2 lead on Jon Branch's 16th double of the season. The 2-run double, which Branch hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Asheville pitcher Raoul Bruggeman visibly frustrated.

Branch attributed the win to "energy and focus on the part of everyone."
