    Jimenez hits walk-off single as Nationals rally for win

    <h3>WASHINGTON 5, COLORADO 4 (10 INNINGS)</h3>WASHINGTON (Ticker) -- D'Angelo Jimenez hit a pinch-hitwalk-off RBI single as the Washington Nationals posted a 5-4victory over the Colorado Rockies in 10 innings on Thursday.

    Jimenez's single scored Austin Kearns, who led off the 10th witha walk and was sacrificed to second and advanced to third on awild pitch by LaTroy Hawkins (1-5).


    The bullpen was a huge reason why the Nationals picked up theirfirst win over Colorado in nine tries. Luis Ayala, Chad Corderoand Jon Rauch (4-2) combined for four hitless innings beforeJimenez's game-winning hit.


    Washington, which boasts the worst record in the NL, ralliedagainst one of the hottest teams in the game by scoring two runsin the eighth.


    A two-out single by pinch hitter Jesus Flores and a costly errorby Colorado right fielder Brad Hawpe helped the Nationals tiethe game at 4-4.


    With runners on first and second, Flores laced a single intoright and a charging Hawpe had the ball skip under his glove androll all the way to the wall. Kearns came around to score thetying run and send RFK Stadium into a frenzy.


    The late rally denied rookie Ubaldo Jimenez his first careerwin. One of Colorado's top pitching prospects, Jimenez allowedtwo runs and four hits with five strikeouts and two walks infive-plus innings.


    The 23-year-old, who made his season debut because TaylorBuchholz was moved to the bullpen, had made just one previousmajor-league start.


    Meanwhile, Washington rookie Matt Chico allowed four runs andseven hits in six innings and has just one win in his last 11starts.


    Chico allowed two-run homers to rookie Troy Tulowitzki andGarrett Atkins to fall behind 4-0.


    Colorado, which had won four straight and 10 of 14, jumped outto a 2-0 lead on Tulowitzki's 11th homer of the season in thefirst inning. Atkins' 14th homer of the season put the Rockiesup 4-0 in the fifth.


    The Nationals lost their most potent offensive weapon when firstbaseman Dmitri Young was ejected in the third inning forarguing a called third strike by home plate umpire Rob Drake.

    Trailing 2-0 in the first, Washington got one back when reigningNL Rookie of the Year Ryan Zimmerman doubled home RonnieBelliard.
