San Diego’s Dylan Cease has put opponents in cease-fire mode.
He’s thrown back-to-back one-hitters over 13 shutout innings while fanning 21.
Washington’s Patrick Corbin has just two wins in 20 starts, but one of them was earned in his latest outing — a one-run-over-six-inning gem against the Reds.

Special thank you to Braves manager Brian Snitker for leaving his starter Allan Winans in the game.
Winans should have pulled himself out of the game, Joe Biden style, after surrendering four runs in the opening frame.
