MLB: Washington 5, Toronto 3

Washington, June 20: Willie Harris hit a two-run homer in the 12th inning Saturday to give the Washington Nationals a 5-3 inter-league triumph over the Toronto Blue Jays

Harris also had a double, while helping the Nationals extend their winning streak to a season-high four games.

Alberto Gonzalez led off the bottom of the 12th with a walk against Scott Richmond (5-4), who entered the game in the 11th. Harris batted next and pulled a full-count pitch over the right field fence to make a winner of Julian Tavarez (3-4), who worked the final 1 2/3 innings.

Gonzalez finished with three hits and Nick Johnson was 2-for-4 with an RBI for Washington.

Vernon Wells homered and Scott Rolen had an RBI for Toronto.
