Max Scherzer delivers the first pitch of the bottom of the third inning, and Cameron Rupp pops out in foul territory to the first baseman. The Phillies are not working the count. A weak ground ball to second becomes the second out. Pitcher Aaron Harang works the count to 3-1, then grounds to shortstop. Scherzer is cruising.
The Nationals continue to lead 1-0 1/3 of the way through the game.
