CINCINNATI (AP) â Adam Eaton had solo homer among his career-high five hits and Brian Goodwin hit his first career grand slam on Saturday, powering the Washington Nationals to a 13-7 victory over the Cincinnati Reds.
The Nationals have won their first two games under new manager Dave Martinez, hired after Dusty Baker was fired last season following another quick exit in the playoffs. The last time they opened a season 3-0 was 2013, when they swept the Marlins.
Matt Adams and Trea Turner also homered for Washington.
Stephen Strasburg (1-0) gave up three runs â only one earned â in 6 1/3 innings while improving to 5-1 career against Cincinnati. Scott Schebler's homer in the fourth inning provided Cincinnati's first run of the season after 12 scoreless innings.
The Nationals piled up six runs in six innings off Luis Castillo (0-1), the Reds' top young starter last season.
