Houston 4 WASHINGTON 2 (CBS Sportsline<\/span> Boxscore<\/b><\/a>)<\/p>\n

The ball was flying out of RFK early on last night with the Nationals getting solo homers from 2B Ronnie Belliard<\/span> (5) and 3B Ryan Zimmerman<\/span> (15). Unfortunately, it was also flying out for Houston with Hunter Pence<\/span> and Carlos Lee<\/span> going deep. Lance Berkmen<\/span> was on base when Lee homered and that provided the difference in the game. Craig Biggio<\/span> also added a RBI in the eighth.<\/p>\n

Both D.C. broadsheets focus on the efforts to trade Dimitri Young<\/span> and Belliard. While that makes sense if they can be exchanged for decent prospects, August and September could be a long two months without their bats.<\/p>\n

Tim Redding<\/span> gave up three runs over seven for the home team, but it wasn’t enough.<\/p>\n

For Nationals, A Quiet Night On the Field<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i><\/p>\n

Trades possible as woes persist<\/b><\/a> – The Wash. Times<\/i><\/p>\n

Nook Logan is getting more starts<\/span><\/a> (The Post<\/span>) because he been seeing more pitches and getting on base more<\/span><\/a> (The Wash. Times<\/span>). Of course, once Alex Escobar<\/span> comes back, Logan and Ryan Langerhans<\/span> will find themselves on the bench because Ryan Church<\/span> will move to center and take their place and make room for Escobar in left. That is until Escobar gets hurt again.<\/p>\n

C Brian Schneider<\/span> got hit by a pitch in the seventh, causing a triceps contusion<\/span><\/a> (nationals.com<\/span>) which used to be called an arm bruise. He left in the top of the ninth last night and won’t play this afternoon.<\/p>\n

Th Times-Dispatch<\/span> has a breakdown of trade possibilities<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Express<\/span> notes that Manny Acta is impressed with the Brewers model<\/span><\/a> and seeks to emulate it. Frankly, the Brewers first place position aside, I think the Nats should emulate a franchise that has actually been to the playoffs already.<\/p>\n
