Nationals end Braves' four-game winning streak

Nyjer Morgan had two hits and scored two runs in his return from the disabled list, and Willie Harris padded the lead with a two-run homer in the ninth as the Nationals beat the Braves, 6-2, Thursday in Atlanta.

John Lannan (Chaminade) won his third straight start. Lannan (5-5) gave up two runs and seven hits in 51/3 innings.

The NL East-leading Braves wrapped up a 5-2 homestand with their first loss in five games. They will get a boost Friday when first baseman Derrek Lee starts against his former team in Chicago.

"We won both series; we have to say it was a real good homestand," manager Bobby Cox said. "We can't win every game. I keep thinking we can and . . . we've never done it yet."
