Nationals 2, Phillies 1
WASHINGTON — Laynce Nix homered and made a diving catch in leftfield, helping Nationals starter John Lannan beat the Phillies for the first time in 14 tries. Lannan entered 0-10 with a 6.44 ERA against Philadelphia. Nix saved a 2-1 lead in the sixth when, with the bases loaded and two outs, he raced left to snare Domonic Brown's fly.
