WEB GEMS- Top 7th: Granny Hamner robbed Bobby Adams of a base hit.

First baseman Luke Easter launched 3 homeruns and had 5 RBI as the Washington
Nationals beat the New York-AL Yankees by a score of 9 to 3.

Easter was unconscious all day.  The New York-AL fans hated to see him
approaching the batter's box as he just kept delivering base hits! He blasted
a two-run home run in the 1st inning, cracked a two-run shot in the 6th
inning and smashed a solo-shot out of the park in the 8th inning.  Washington
totaled 12 hits on the afternoon.  

Murry Dickson(12-14) went 8 and 1/3 innings allowing 3 runs for the victory.
Gerry Staley(7-8) took the loss.  He was touched for 3 homeruns in his 7
innings of work.  

'Easter led the way - we just jumped on his back and let him take us,' Dickson
said. 'I'm glad I don't have to face him. I'm glad he's on my team.'
