WASHINGTON, Aug. 21 (UPI) -- Felipe Lopez had two hits and two RBI Friday to lead Milwaukee to a rain-delayed 7-3 win over Washington.

The hits by the former National, both RBI singles, came in the seventh and ninth innings.

Prince Fielder hit a two-run homer.

Casey McGehee hit a solo shot, and Jason Kendall had three hits and one RBI for the Brewers, who ended their four-game losing streak.

Winner Braden Looper (11-6) gave up two runs and four hits in six innings.

Washington's runs scored on Adam Dunn's two-run homer and Ryan Zimmerman's solo shot.

Losing pitcher J.D. Martin (2-3) yielded four runs and eight hits in 6 2/3 innings.

Rain delayed the game about 30 minutes in the top of the eighth.

Earlier, the Nationals introduced No. 1 draft pick Stephen Strassburg, a pitching phenom from San Diego State.
