Washington Nationals rally for 9-5 win over Chicago White Sox in series opener...

Stephen Strasburg struggled early, but after giving up five runs in the first two innings, the right-hander held the Chicago White Sox there as his Washington Nationals teammates got back in the game, scoring two in the third, one in the fourth, and sixth in the fifth to take a 9-5 lead. Strasburg was the pitcher of record when the Nats went ahead, so the 2009 No. 1 overall pick earned his 100th career win when they held on.

Congrats, Stras... though, a pitcher win is like, totally meaningless, you know.
