Willi Castro tied it 3-all with a three-run double in the third, but Young put the Nationals back ahead with a solo drive in the sixth.

Abrams connected for a two-run homer that made it 6-3 in the seventh. Daylen Lile hit an RBI triple in the ninth, scoring Wood.

Young and Mead both finished with three hits.

Washington reliever Riley Cornelio (1-1) threw 1 2/3 hitless innings in relief of starter Andrew Alvarez for his first major league win. Cornelio got All-Star slugger Hunter Goodman to ground into an inning-ending double play in the fifth.

Tom Cosgrove needed only 10 pitches to toss two perfect innings for his second career save. The other one came in 2023 with San Diego.

Rockies starter Kyle Freeland (2-9) gave up four runs and seven hits in six innings. He struck out four and walked two.

Nationals RHP Miles Mikolas (3-7, 5.53 ERA) starts Tuesday against Rockies RHP Michael Lorenzen (3-9, 6.22).
