That was his only appearance of the series.
Elías and Voth were on the roster for the NL Championship Series sweep of St. Louis but did not pitch,
"I can use Ross in back-to-back days," Nationals manager Dave Martinez said. "Voth, I don't really know if we use him one day, he might not be able to pitch back-to-back days."
