Harper, Strasburg Lead Nationals Past Marlins, 2-0

The Washington Nationals continued their success from last year's turnaround season to open up the 2013 campaign with a 2-0 win over the Miami Marlins. Washington benefited from strong performances from their consecutive No.1 overall MLB draft picks from 2009 and 2010, pitcher Stephen Strasburg and center fielder Bryce Harper.
