THIS DAY WITH THE '05 OVERACHIEVERS: Saturday 16th July 2005 saw the Nats briefly snap out of their funk with a 5-3 win at Milwaukee, with Guillen's 2-RBI single in the seventh the difference and Cordero adding a MLB-leading 32nd save...record now 53-38...

Didn't catch last night's match since I was at the basketball doubleheader...I note that Hanley Ramirez, after going 2-for-11 over Games 1-3 of this series, is once more the dependable Nats-killer he has traditionally been.

Possibly the most crucial homestand of the season starting tonight...hopefully we can extend the Mets' slump (lost four straight and 7 of their last 10)...I would dearly love a sweep...we need every win we can get to hold off the Braves.
