April 12, 2012: Nationals 4 Reds 2




The Nationals win their home opener behind 7 strong innings from Gio Gonzalez. The Nats got a solo homer from Adam Laroche in the 3rd, then a 2-run bomb in the 8th from Wilson Ramos. The Ramos HR proves critical because otherwise, the Reds would have tied the game in the 9th with a Scott Rolen solo homer off Brad Lidge. Instead, Lidge earns his first save in a Nats uniform.
