WASHINGTON -- Two big innings were enough for the Washington Nationals to overcome the Atlanta Braves and top prospect Dansby Swansons inside-the-park home run Tuesday night.Pinch-runner Michael A. Taylor scored the go-ahead run on catcher Tyler Flowers throwing error as part of a three-run eighth inning as the Nationals defeated Atlanta 9-7.Youve got to believe and think it and everybody was believing, Nationals manager Dusty Baker said. The power of positive thinking goes a long way, especially in this game. That brought the crowd back into the game.Washington had a five-run third inning for the second consecutive night.We just sometimes cant stay away from that crooked number in one inning, Atlanta interim manager Brian Snitker said.Taylor pinch-ran after Braves reliever Jose Ramirez (2-2) walked Ryan Zimmerman. Taylor stole second and, after Danny Espinosas walk, scored when an off-balance Flowers threw pinch-hitter Ben Reveres bunt attempt well to the left of third baseman Adonis Garcia.I knew if I got my hand on it, it had to be quick, Flowers said. When I went through it all in my head, I imagined it being a little more accurate in my head before it happened. Its a do-or-die play. The game is essentially on the line. I tried to be an athlete and it just didnt work out.Trea Turner then hit a two-run single for Washington, which beat Atlanta for the 13th time in 15 meetings this season.Koda Glover (2-0) retired the only two batters he faced to earn the victory, while Mark Melancon got his 39th save in 42 opportunities.Washington used seven relievers, who combined to retire 17 of the 20 batters they faced.They did a great job tonight, Zimmerman said. Theyve done a really great job all year long, coming into games and keeping us where were at. Theyre not an easy team to pitch to.Nationals right fielder Bryce Harper secured his first career 20 homer-20 steal season with a stolen base in the seventh.Swanson, the 2015 overall No. 1 draft pick, hit an inside-the-park home run in the second inning. The shortstop lined a pitch from Gio Gonzalez over Turner and high off the fence in center field, 399 feet away. The ball caromed toward the infield, and Swanson slid home headfirst, easily beating the throw from Harper. It was his first career home run.Swanson, who made his big league debut Aug. 17, entered the game hitting .236 with four RBI in 55 at-bats. Atlantas previous inside-the-park home run was by Wes Helms on Oct. 7, 2001.It was one of those things where I thought it was going to be my first triple, Swanson said. Then as I kept going, judging by the reaction in the dugout and the crowd, I thought `Maybe Ill get an inside-the-parker. I just kept going.Swansons homer gave Atlanta a 3-1 lead, and the Braves added another run in the third on Freddie Freemans RBI single. But Washington blasted starter Williams Perez in the third inning, collecting three singles before Rendon launched an 0-2 pitch to left for his first career grand slam. Zimmerman chased Perez two batters later with a solo homer.Perez allowed six runs in 2 1/3 innings. Gonzalez didnt fare much better, allowing six runs in three innings.STREAKS CONTINUEOF Ender Inciarte singled twice to extend his hitting streak to 17 games, two shy of his career high. Freeman pushed his hitting streak to 13 games with a single.TRAINERS ROOMBraves: RHP Matt Wisler (sore side) played catch a day after he missed his scheduled start Snitker said Wisler would likely need a couple of side sessions before returning to the rotation.Nationals: Washington recalled INF Wilmer Difo and RHP Lucas Giolito from Triple-A Syracuse. Difo hit .257 with five RBI in 35 at-bats in earlier stints with the Nationals, while Giolito is 0-1 with a 5.63 ERA in four starts in the majors.UP NEXTBraves: RHP Mike Foltynewicz (8-5, 4.31) starts the series finale for Atlanta. Foltynewicz earned a victory in his only previous start this year against Washington, allowing four runs in 5 2/3 innings on Aug. 12.Nationals: Strasburg (15-4, 3.59) will return from the DL and start Wednesday. Strasburg has not pitched since Aug. 17 because of right elbow soreness. He is 2-1 with a 4.26 ERA in three starts against Atlanta this season.

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- Joe Paterno was aware of sexual abuse by Jerry Sandusky as far back as 1976 and some assistant coaches knew in subsequent decades, according to alleged victims depositions that were unsealed Tuesday.John Doe 150 said in a 2014 deposition that he informed Paterno the day after a 1976 incident that Sandusky stuck his finger in the then-14-year-old boys rectum while he showered. The man said in 2014 that other boys in a shower heard him yell that Sandusky had just touched him sexually.He said he told several adults about it, then sought out Paterno.Is it accurate that Coach Paterno quickly said to you, I dont want to hear about any of that kind of stuff, I have a football season to worry about? a lawyer for Penn States insurance carrier asked the man. Specifically, yes, the man replied.I was shocked, disappointed, offended, I was insulted, John Doe 150 testified. I said, is that all youre going to do? Youre not going to do anything else?He said Paterno then just walked away.Paterno told a grand jury in 2011 that he first learned in 2001 of inappropriate sexual contact by Sandusky involving young boys.I do not know of anything else that Jerry would be involved in of that nature, no. I do not know of it. You did mention -- I think you said something about a rumor. It may have been discussed in my presence, something else about somebody. I dont know. I dont remember, and I could not honestly say I heard a rumor, Paterno testified.Paterno told a reporter before he died in early 2012 -- just months after Sanduskys arrest -- that the first inkling he had that Sandusky might be abusing children occurred in 2001, though there are records that show high-ranking Penn State officials dealt with a complaint in 1998 by a mother that Sandusky had showered with her son.According to the documents, current UCLA defensive coordinator Tom Bradley and Ohio State defensive coordinator Greg Schiano were among those coaches who were also aware of the abuse. Mike McQueary, a former assistant who reported to Paterno the 2001 incident in a team shower and who testified against Sandusky at trial, said in a 2015 deposition that former defensive coordinator Bradley was not shocked when told of it.Bradley, who briefly took over as head coach after Paternos firing, said he knew of some things about Sandusky dating to the 1980s, McQueary testified.Bradleys representative Brett Senior issued a statement Tuesday afternoon.At no time did Tom Bradley ever witness any inappropriate behavior, it read. Nor did he have any knowledge of alleged incidents in the 80s and 90s. He has consistently testified as such. Any assertions to the contrary are false. When he became aware of the 2001 incident it had already been reported to the University administration years earlier.McQueary also said Bradley told him that hed been approached by someone in the 80s who saw Sandusky doing something to a boy and that in the 90s, former assistant coach Schiano saw Sandusky in the shower with a boy.Greg had come into his office white as a ghost and said he just saw Jerry doing something to a boy in the shower, McQueary testified.Schiano told ESPN: I never saw any abuse, nor had reason to suspect any abuse, during my time at Penn State.Dozens of documents and excerpts were released Tuesday by a judge who is presiding over litigation between Penn State and Pennsylvania Manufacturers Association Insurance Co. over payment of claims for abuse by Sandusky, who is now serving 30 to 60 years in state prison for child molestation. Penn State has made $92 million in total payoutts to settle 32 civil claims in the Sandusky sex molestation scandal.ddddddddddddThe judge two months ago disclosed the existence of the 1976 allegation, along with claims that coaches witnessed inappropriate contact between Sandusky and children in the 80s, but the newly unsealed documents provide far greater detail.Penn State university president Eric Barron released a statement Tuesday morning and cautioned the community not to speculate on any new allegations. Penn States overriding concern has been, and remains, for the victims of Jerry Sandusky, he wrote. While individuals hold different opinions, and may draw different inferences from the testimony about former Penn State employees, speculation by Penn State is not useful. We must be sensitive to all individuals involved, and especially to those who may be victims of child sexual abuse.Although settlements have been reached, it also is important to reiterate that the alleged knowledge of former Penn State employees is not proven, and should not be treated as such. Some individuals deny the claims, and others are unable to defend themselves.A lawyer for Paternos family issued a statement Tuesday claiming there is evidence that stands in stark contrast to John Doe 150s story.The lawyer, Wick Sollers, said, There are numerous specific elements of the accusations that defy all logic and have never been subjected to even the most basic objective examination. Sanduskys lawyer has also denied the allegation.According to other alleged victims depositions, several other coaches also stumbled upon Sandusky abusing children throughout the years.John Doe 75 alleged that in 1987, assistant coach Joe Sarra walked into the coaches meeting room and saw Sandusky lying on the floor with the boy with his hand down the waistband of the 13-year-olds pants. John Doe 75 said Sarra may have said something like, oh, sorry, and immediately walked out, after which Sandusky kissed him on the forehead. Sarra died four years ago.John Doe 101 alleged in a 2014 deposition that in 1988, assistant coach Kevin ODea spotted Sandusky rubbing the boys back while the boy was lying on a couch in his underwear. Sandusky attempted to hide the activity by pretending he was wrestling. ODea most recently was the special-teams coordinator for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 2014-15.?According to the documents, then-athletic director Jim Tarman was made aware of an allegation in 1988 regarding John Doe 102, who lived in a group home for delinquent boys. After making the allegations, John Doe 102 said he was asked to apologize to Sandusky and Tarman for telling lies.The records also include an analysis by a lawyer working as an expert for the insurance company that said the settlements paid by Penn State seemed very high, possibly as a result of the universitys concern about publicity and a wish to resolve matters quickly.Lawyer Eric Anderson said the school made little effort, if any, to verify the credibility of the claims of the individuals.Ken Feinberg, a lawyer who helped mediate claims against the school, told reporters last week it was a very objective process and none of the cases was easy to resolve. He said Penn State was diligent in making sure the claims were backed up by sufficient proof.Sandusky, 72, was convicted in June 2012 of sexually abusing 10 different boys between 1994 and 2008. He has maintained his innocence.Information from The Associated Press was used in this report. ' ' '
