PHOENIX -- Double-digit strikeouts in a game is nothing new for Max Scherzer. Hitting a two-run single is much more rare.Scherzer was strong on the mound with 11 strikeouts in eight innings, but his sixth-inning base hit with two outs and the bases loaded helped lead the Washington Nationals to a 8-3 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday.Scherzer (12-6) and his manager, Dusty Baker, said the Nationals work on their hitting almost daily.I really take pride in being able to move runners and help the team, Scherzer said. Any time you can do something at the plate to help your team, it really puts a smile on everybodys face.Washington earned its fourth road series sweep of the season and first since May 30-June 1 at Philadelphia. Arizona lost its fourth straight and sixth in seven games, and fell to 0-9 in Wednesday games at home this season.Scherzer allowed three runs on four hits, giving up two homers, and walked one. He is 3-0 in four starts against his former team, which drafted the four-time All-Star and former Cy Young Award winner No. 11 overall in 2006.He gave us quality. He only made two mistakes, Baker said.Daniel Murphys sixth-inning solo home run broke a 1-1 tie before Scherzer bounced a single up the middle with the bases loaded and two outs, driving in Anthony Rendon and Danny Espinosa. Scherzer battled back from an 0-2 count.I didnt make a pitch. I threw a cutter that just ran in like a fastball and he put a good swing on it and got it back up the middle and got a hit, Diamondbacks starter Zack Godley said of Scherzers single. Tip your hat to him. He put a good at-bat together, I just didnt make my pitch.Murphy, the NLs leading hitter with a .358 average, has hit safely in 17 of 19 games and has seven home runs in that span, 20 on the season.Fortunately we were able to get some good pitches to hit that third time through the lineup and put some good swings on him (Godley), Murphy said.Scherzer held the Diamondbacks hitless for four innings, but David Peralta led off the bottom of the fifth with a double to left field. Peralta advanced to third on a wild pitch, and with one out, scored when Bryce Harper dropped a sliding catch of Brandon Drurys shallow fly ball to right.That tied the game at 1, after Trea Turners second career home run and first of 2016 came with one out in the top of the third.The Nationals went ahead 4-1 in the sixth before Jake Lambs solo shot in the bottom of the inning. It was Lambs second homer in as many days.Yasmany Tomas cut the Nationals lead to one with a home run in the seventh, the first time in his career hes gone deep in back-to-back games.The Nationals scored four runs in the ninth off Arizonas troubled bullpen, on Espinosas RBI ground-rule double, a walk and Clint Robinsons two-run pinch-hit single.Godley (3-2) allowed four runs and eight hits with seven strikeouts and a walk in six innings.I was happy with our offensive performance against him (Scherzer), Arizona manager Chip Hale said. Hes one of the better guys in the league and one of the best competitors. The game was very well played for the eight innings, and then we just couldnt hold them in the top of the ninth.TRAINERS ROOMNationals: Harper returned to the lineup after missing Tuesdays game because of illness. ...

SAN MARTIN, Calif. -- When Sung Hyun Park entered her first U.S. Womens Open, her goals were modest. Halfway through the tournament, Park has put herself in prime position to contend.Park capitalized on the favorable morning scoring conditions, shooting a 6-under 72 Friday to take a two-stroke lead after the second round of the U.S. Womens Open at CordeValle.I didnt even think about winning because this is the first time for me, Park said through an interpreter. I would like more experience with the USGA, LPGA. But Im trying to enjoy this tournament. Thats why I am just more comfortable, dont even think about the winning, I just enjoy the play.Park, a 22-year-old from South Korea, made her LPGA debut last year when she finished second at the KEB-HanaBank Championship in South Korea. She has played three more LPGA tournaments this year, tying for sixth in her first major at the ANA Inspiration in the spring.Park had four birdies in a six-hole span to move to 9 under before struggling on the final two holes. She hit her second shot into the greenside bunker at the par-4 17th and then missed a short par putt for her only bogey of the round. Park then drove into a hazard on the par-5 18th for a one-shot penalty before saving par with a 15-foot putt.Amy Yang shot a 71 to get to 6 under, tied for second with first-round leader Mirim Lee. World No. 1 Lydia Ko bounced back from a 1-over par first round to shoot 66 for a tie for fourth with Haru Nomura.Lee, who tied a U.S. Open record by shooting 8 under Thursday, birdied three of the final four holes on her front nine in the afternoon to take a one-shot lead over Park.But things then quickly fell apart. She missed the fairway with her drive on the par-4 10th and her approach shot sailed past the green. Her chip attempt fell short of the green before she three-putted from the fringe for a double bogey.Lee then drove into the front bunker on the par-3 12th hole before missing an 8-foot putt for par to fall two strookes off the lead.ddddddddddddI kept trying to hit the fairway and the green, but I couldnt, she said. So score, its not bad, but not good, too.Ko got off to a shaky start with a bogey on the first hole before stringing together four straight birdies starting at No. 3. She added two more birdies before capping her round with the seventh of the day at the par-5 18th.My birdie on 3 kind of turned the round around and making the string of birdies definitely helped, she said. Just to know that this is the first time I was under par for the tournament kind of put myself in a positive position.While contending in a major is a mostly new experience for Park, Ko is an old hat at it at the age of 19. She won the Evian Championship last September to become the youngest woman ever to win a major and followed that up with her second at the ANA Inspiration this year.Ko then lost a playoff to Brooke Henderson in the KPMG Womens PGA Championship in Washington last month.I think the more I play, I think the more I get used to it, especially at these majors where the courses are tough, Ko said. You need to stay patient. I think thats the big key Ive been learning, just keep my head high and just enjoy it out here.Henderson, ranked second in the world, and fourth-ranked Lexi Thompson could not match playing partner Ko and both finished the day at 3 over.Among the players who missed the cut at 4 over were last years winner In Gee Chun, 2014 U.S. Open champion Michelle Wie and 1998 winner Se Ri Pak.Pak, whose success helped lead to the surge of South Koreans on the tour, double-bogeyed her final hole to finish with an 80 on the day and plus-9 in her final scheduled tournament in the United States.Some players, including Karrie Webb and Christina Kim, came back to the 18th green to watch Paks final shot and congratulate her on a remarkable career.
