KISSIMMEE, Fla. (AP) -- Alfonso Soriano hit a three-run homer to
lead the Washington Nationals to a 4-2 win over the Atlanta Braves
on Friday night.
Soriano, who initially refused to play the outfield, made his
third straight start in left field but had no putouts. He only
handled one ball:
Ryan Langerhans' double to left in the third
inning.
Soriano homered in the fifth inning against Braves starter Tim
Hudson, who allowed five hits and four runs in six innings.
Hudson, scheduled to start opening day for Atlanta, struck out
six and walked two.
"I'm happy where I am right now," he said. "I'll be ready for
opening day. I'm just here to get in shape and get my delivery
down."
Veteran left-hander
Mike Remlinger, who signed a minor league
contract with the Braves during the winter, allowed a hit in a
scoreless inning.
Chris Reitsma and
Lance Cormier added a shutout
inning apiece.
"Everybody in the bullpen is throwing good right now," Braves
manager Bobby Cox said. "Remlinger has been unhittable, and
Reitsma looks really good."
Gary Majewski,
Travis Hughes, and Jason Bergmann each pitched a
shutout inning for Washington.
