- Michael Soroka pitched six scoreless innings with seven strikeouts as the Washington Nationals defeated the Texas Rangers 2-0 on June 7, 2025, at Nationals Park.

- The Nationals opened the scoring in the second inning when Robert Hassell III drove in a run with a groundout, and they extended their lead in the seventh inning on Alex Call’s first home run of the season.
- Soroka allowed four baserunners through two hits, one walk, and one hit-by-pitch while the game finished in a Nationals Park record time of 1:50, despite an errant throw extending the ninth inning.
- The outing was one of Soroka's best, marking the sixth shutout for the Nationals this season, which equals their total shutouts from all of 2024, suggesting improved pitching effectiveness.
