Nationals P Irvin goes 5 innings, exits with shoulder injury

Washington right-hander Jake Irvin pitched five hitless innings for his first win in nearly two months, a 2-0 victory over Atlanta, but he felt a bit of tightness on his final few pitches in the fifth before turning the game over to the Nationals bullpen.
