WASHINGTON - Shelby Miller threw five shutout innings and Jean Segura had three hits to reach 200 for the season as the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Washington Nationals 3-0 in a rain-shortened game Wednesday night.
The start of the game was delayed 33 minutes by rain and was later called with one out in the top of the sixth inning after waiting out a second delay of 70 minutes.
The NL East-champion Nationals have lost two of three to the last-place Diamondbacks and seven of their last 11 games overall.
Miller (3-12) capped an otherwise forgetful season with one of his best outings of the year, allowing five hits with one walk and striking out five to earn his first win since June 20.
