Gonzalez gets 1st win since April as Nats beat Giants

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Having spent his first four major league seasons across the bay in Oakland, left-hander Gio Gonzalez was more than comfortable pitching in the crisp, blustery conditions at AT&T Park.

Even when he had to spend long stretches of time in the Washington dugout as his teammates piled up hits, Gonzalez never really got cold.

Gonzalez pitched into the seventh inning to win for the first time in more than a month, and the Nationals beat the San Francisco Giants 6-3 on Tuesday night.
