Ojeda breaks down the Harper HR and the Harper line-drive over Murphy. "Situational hitting...way beyond his years"

- ball hanging, Harper drives it.

- curve ball high, if he upper cuts it's a pop out. Harper squares and drives the ball. Takes a player five or ten years to learn that.

No, Tejada had dropped the ball before Bernadina slide and spiked him. No question.

Johnny and Ray raving about Harper.  I loved Bryce trailing right behind DeRosa when Zimm cleared the bases.

Jordan Zimmermann pitched a terrific game again!  He's as good as our no. 1 and  2 pitchers.

It would be cosmic justice if the Braves were to lose that one-and-done to the Pirates.

Nats win 56th game tonight, 4.5 games ahead of Braves.

1925 team won 56th game on July 19, beating Cleveland 4 - 2, Dutch Reuther winning his 10th game against 5 losses. Nats rest Peck, the famous SS Roger Peckinpaugh. Otherwise, seven nats players hitting .300s or better, including Reuter at .406. Nats 4 runs on 14 hits, no errors.

The 2012 team is on a pennant-winning pace.

I watched NBC4 news before I headed out the door.   Before the break leading to the sports, Jim Vance teased the lead on the Nats by using the term "Hawpa".    Vance may be from Philly but he knows what's goin' on.    Vance is on board.   I think we have a trend developing.

Comparative dates on which the Nationals notched their 56th win, each season:

2012 - 23rd July (95th match of season)*
2005 - 31st July (105th match)*
2011 - 9th August (115th match)
2007 - 20th August (125th match)
2010 - 29th August (131st match)
2006 - 31st August (133rd match)
2008 - 7th September (144th match)
2009 - 1st October (159th match)

*what helped the current edition open up so much ground with last night's win was the fact that the '05 Overachievers' 56th win - of a series finale at Florida - snapped a 6-match losing streak

---

THIS DAY WITH THE '05 OVERACHIEVERS: Saturday 23rd July 2005 saw the Nats rebound from Friday's pasting with a 4-2 home win over the Astros, all of the Nats' runs coming in the first inning...record now 55-43: http://espn.go.com/mlb/recap?gameId=250723120

---

That 56th win also pulls us even with the full-season record of the 1963 edition of AL Senators Version 2.0, which finished the season 56-106 (worst finish by that DC baseball team). This also pulls us even with the 1919 and 1948 editions of AL Senators Version 1.0 in terms of total wins (both won 56), which is also more than eight other editions of the future Twins.

So the 2005 team must have really hit a skid after the ASB?  It seemed they had been outpacing this team all season.

Indeed they did - after peaking on 3rd July at 50-31 following a sweep of the Cubs at Wrigley, starting with the disastrous Fourth of July against the Mets they would go 6-19 over their next 25...they would not win back-to-back matches again till 3rd/4th August.
