3-1. nobody on. ryan zimmermann waiting on deck 

he's . the count even at 1-1. racked up they're 34th win of

the season. the nationals 9-21. overall 15-41. the ball game is over at 12:52 a.m. if reds have won it 4-2. the final score the cincinnati reds beat washington 4-2. joining us again coming upped to on masn 2. it's been a presentation of masn. stay tuned for nats extra post game coming upright now. 

there's a look at nationals  park with the look at delay. the final 4-2. nats extra post game show on masn is brought to you by verizon fios. the fastest internet. the tale of two games it felt like here. when did we start? five or six hours ago at 7. the nationals got down 0-2 early on. then a crazy top of the 12th inning to wind things down. >> it's been crazy season. we've had so many rain delays. it's very difficult. cordera has to come back to the mound and that's tough to do. it's a big part of every

athletic event. the momentum changed. >> the 12th inning he got that. there's so many innings. so many rain delays. let's look at what happened. >> it's slippery out there. then like the wheel play. he break and the shortstop doesn't go to third. that tacked another run to make it 4-2. not a lot of offense tonight from either ball club. the reds got out ahead in the second inning. >> they had three hits through

nine innings. you really felt like that 9th inning was the best chance for the nats to win the game. because of the way the offense had not been able to function during the game, that was they're best chance to win the gay. >> it really is. you're going to have two or three chances to win minimally. we always call situational hitting. we're hitting less than 200 with runners in the scoring position. scoring only 1.73 runs per game. >> extra inning games too. we haven't won one game in extra innings. it's 0-9 this season and 8 here at home. a lot of die hard fans have hung in there. >> not many in hered to. >> no, no. we did have some die hards that

hung in there. >> you always do and it's the same people all the time that hang around to see that win. with metro leaving at 11:30, you have people filing out of here. >> the bottom line is that clutch hit that we have been waiting for. it was june 10th, 2008 the last time they won a game after trailing after 8. i was hoping but june 10th, '09 wasn't meant to be. >> any time that he can have the kind of outing that he had tonight where he only gives up three hits in 7 innings deserved a much better faith than this. >> absolutely,. >> johnny:ny. had one mistake and that was

the home run ball that hit batter before that. your team fights back, gets you back in the ball game. there's an error made out there in the field. you're going to be see it coming by willingham, comes back, strikeout and there you see the flip over to christian guzman. he get a ground ball double play to get out of that. that's one of those things he can build on and move on. >> one of the things about this ball game, the fact that the nats nathan was were able to fight back. the bull pen is so tough, you have to fight and scratch to get anything off those guys. >> it's starting to look guys. even that double play that was

turned over. the bull pen is throwing much better. if the offense catches back up, it's going to be good things. back to you guys on the set. >> thank a lot guys as the reds win it 4-2. it seems like it was a world ago when martin was on the hill. three hits as we talked about. only the two run. another quality start for him keeping the team in the ball game. the pitching is doing what they're supposed to be doing. >> he had the slider just working. he had the fast ball. he got nick hitting by pitch and hernandez hits a rocket and jim dives to make as good a play as you're going to make. really two mistakes tonight all night long. most of them in the same spot. in is kind of story line.

phillips up there. nice little turn and bruce ground into first, rolling that ball over. then gonzalez flies real deep and makes good play on it as it gets back. intentional babble and the rain to second base. again, our pitching staff has really shut down the opposition, less than four runs a game over the last seven eight games, 3.57 to be exact. >> all right. >> let's head down
