Yes, probably.  It is rare for a scratch to get infected unless it is a really really bad one- bites are a FAR larger concern.

For minor scratches you usually don't have to do much other than you say by washing with antibacterial soap.

Hibiclens is good to have on hand for cleaning scratches or any surface type wound. http://www.hibiclens.com/retail

Also, many of us use this for cat scratches and/or bites - applied full strength. Works really well to ward off infection. Colloidal Silver
