PHOENIX (AP) Anthony Rendon drove in three runs, Daniel Murphy went 3 for 3, and Stephen Strasburg got his major league-leading 15th win as the Washington Nationals beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 14-1 Monday night.

Murphy raised his National League-leading batting average to .355 before exiting the game in the top of the fifth inning after he doubled in a run. Murphy was back in the Nationals' starting lineup for the first time since last Friday, when he left due to hamstring tightness.

Strasburg (15-1) allowed a run and three hits in six innings, striking out six and walking two. He also had three hits and an RBI.

Rendon had two hits and is batting .333 with 12 RBIs and four doubles since July 16. Wilson Ramos also had three hits and two RBIs, and Bryce Harper scored three runs.

Arizona starter Archie Bradley (4-7) gave up eight runs and 12 hits in 3 1/3 innings.
