By Richard Dean / Special to MLB.com

HOUSTON -- The Washington Nationals ended their 10-game, three-city road trip on a disappointing note, wasting a two-run ninth-inning rally only to lose in a bitter defeat, 6-4, to the Astros.

Carlos Lee hit a two-run walk-off home run off Matt Capps, capping off a three-run frame for the Astros.
