Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Washington Nationals right fielder Jayson Werth left in the sixth inning of Sunday's 10-2 loss to the Pirates with a left wrist injury. Leading off, Werth took a 1-2 offering from Kevin Correia off of a protective guard which covered the wrist.
He slammed his bat in frustration before walking to first and was promptly removed in favor of Brian Bixler.
Glen Perkins got the final two outs of the contest to receive the first save of his career.
Neither starter was very effective. Zack Greinke went six innings, allowing five runs -- four earned -- on five hits and two walks while striking out nine for Milwaukee and Nick Blackburn allowed six runs on six hits and a walk through four innings for Minnesota.
Josh Beckett (7-3) fanned a season-high 11 batters over eight solid innings, in which he allowed five hits and one run. Jonathan Papelbon turned in a scoreless ninth with three strikeouts to post his 17th save.
Mark Melancon (5-2) walked three in the ninth and took the loss.
After retiring Jason Varitek to start the ninth, Melancon walked pinch-hitter Sutton, then Ellsbury singled. Dustin Pedroia's fielder's choice left runners on the corners, and Adrian Gonzalez drew a free pass to load the bases. The move backfired as Youkilis followed by working a walk to force in Sutton and the Sox led, 2-1.
In the fourth, two singles and a walk loaded the bases for Varitek, who reached first on Wallace's throwing error to score a run.
