_______________________________________ _________

Vargas (3-0, 2.89 ERA), off to the best start of his five-year career, joins Chris Capuano as the only undefeated members of a Brewers' rotation that boasts a 3.48 ERA. He'll try to help Milwaukee (23-10) extend its season-high winning streak to six games and finish 9-1 on the homestand.

Vargas, who was with the Nationals franchise from 2003-2005 in Washington and prior in Montreal, has not allowed a run in 12 innings. Vargas gave up four hits in six scoreless innings in Milwaukee's 10-0 win over Pittsburgh on Friday.

Jason Bergmann (0-3, 3.34) will again look for his first win since 2005 when he takes the mound for the Nationals on Wednesday. In his most recent outing, Bergman could not hold a 4-0 first-inning lead and allowed four earned runs and eight hits in Washington's 6-4 loss to the Chicago Cubs on Friday.

The left-hander, who is 0-4 in 13 career starts, will make his first appearance against the Brewers.

Sick... of losing. We've lost 7 straight games and lost 9 out of our last 10 games.

Save Ferris and 2k6nats

That is one awesomesauce movie.

And to think we put Claudio Vargas on waivers...

Vargas sucks, we should have a chance to win today but you never know. I won't be posting today as I'll be out golfing/eating to celebrate my birthday. I'm taping the game and I'll be watching when I get home later today.

I'm sick today also. But somehow the Nats keep me coming back like a zombie...

nats2playoffs · « **Reply #13:** May 09, 2007, 01:33:29 PM »

B.S. and What-The-Fick get singles with 2 ******* outs in the 2nd inning. Both advance on a Wild Pitch, offered for sportsfan882's ******* birthday. Ryan #3 (Langerhans) leaves them both on base. sportsfan will be ****** *** about this! Knocking on the door and no answer...

2k6nats · « **Reply #14:** May 09, 2007, 01:44:02 PM »

Guzman walks to bring up Zimmerman with two outs...

Debbi Taylor is like an icepick to the brain.

It's also astoundingly quiet.

If I was a Nats pitcher, I couldn't go out there every game and know that I wasn't going to get any run support, and pitch well.

I just couldn't do it!

2k6nats · « **Reply #20:** May 09, 2007, 01:55:31 PM »

Bergie Ks one of the hottest hitters in MLB right now, and the game remains scoreless.

2k6nats · « **Reply #21:** May 09, 2007, 01:59:47 PM »

Wow, three quick outs.

nats2playoffs · « **Reply #22:** May 09, 2007, 02:01:40 PM »

The Nationals lineup looks like their Maximum Defense package, to prevent runs from scoring, and maybe win a close game: Lopez, Guzman, Schneider, Fick, Langerhans. Church lines out - he's way overdue for a homer and RBIs. AK47 KOs. B.S. groundout. This is the worst offense to ever play on sportsfan882's ******* ************birthday!

Nationals 0
Brewers 0
