ATLANTA -- Alex Wood set a career high with 12 strikeouts in 7 1-3 innings and the Atlanta Braves beat Washington 3-1 on Sunday night to continue their recent success against the Nationals. By winning two of three in the weekend series, Atlanta cut Washingtons lead to 3 1/2 games in the NL East. The Braves are 9-4 against the Nationals this season and 22-10 in the series the last two years. Justin Upton homered for the Braves, who had lost nine of their last 10. Ian Desmonds fourth-inning homer was the only run allowed by Wood. With the game tied 1-1, Emilio Bonifacio led off the fifth with a bunt single and scored the go-ahead run on Jason Heywards infield hit off Gio Gonzalez (6-9). Wood (8-9), who allowed five hits, set another career high by throwing 124 pitches. The left-hander walked Jayson Werth to lead off the eighth before striking out Adam LaRoche. David Carpenter replaced Wood and ended the inning on Desmonds double-play grounder. Pinch-hitter Evan Gattis hit a single to right field off Jerry Blevins in the eighth to drive in Chris Johnson, who walked. Craig Kimbrel, pitching on the third straight night, had a perfect ninth to earn his 34th save. Gonzalez gave up two runs, six hits and four walks in 4 2-3 innings. He has lost four straight starts. The versatile Bonifacio, acquired from the Cubs on July 31, hit leadoff and started in centre field one night after starting at shortstop. With the game tied 1-1, Bonifacio used his speed to lead off the fifth with a bunt single, despite a creative defensive effort by Gonzalez. The pitcher fielded the ball with his back to first base and flipped the ball between his legs to Adam LaRoche. Bonifacio was safe despite a collision with LaRoche. Gonzalez walked Tommy La Stella before Freddie Freemans double-play grounder sent Bonifacio to third. Bonifacio took off for the plate on Heywards grounder to second baseman Danny Espinosa. LaRoche broke for the grounder, leaving first base uncovered because Gonzalez started running for the bag and then stopped before taking off again too late. Heyward was safe with the single as Bonifacio scored the go-ahead run. Desmond led off the fourth with his 19th homer to right field. Upton tied the game in the bottom of the inning with his 21st homer. Upton collected two career milestones with the line-drive homer. It was his 1,000th hit and gave him 500 career RBIs.

Henrik Lundqvist, New York Rangers (4)- Did has he always does, gives the Rangers a chance to win a game. Outstanding on the penalty kill, as the Rangers were short eight times, he made big saves early on Brian Gionta backdoor and Daniel Briere in tight. He was really locked in as far as rebound control and exploding into pucks. His comfort level with the DEPTH of his game is always amazing to watch, as theres not much margin for error if hes deep on the play. He closes holes and swallows pucks up as good as anybody in tthe league.ddddddddddddThree big saves in OT show what hes capable of when the chips are on the line. Dustin Tokarski, Montreal Canadiens (3) - Very aggressive game, was explosive and played at the top of his crease quite often. It started early on with a big save on Marc Staal, continued good work in the second. As he made two, ten bell saves on Martin St. Louis and Derick Brassard respectively, allowed two breakaway goals to Carl Hagelin and Brassard. GWG was a great shot by St. Louis, but he looked to activate in the VH position early, and from a tough angle. He was a big reason why they even made it to OT, but came up short. ' ' '
