Any chance of making this a 28 game series?

For the second night in a row the Blue scored enough runs, and more importantly didn't allow a Nationals player to touch home plate.  Not from third, at least, as they offed Washington at RFK 5-0 behind seven stellar innings of three hit ball from Derek Lowe, a two-run bomb from Russell Martin, and a pair of hits each for Rafael Furcal and Luis Gonzalez.  How good was the groove on Wedesday night?  Lowe, who generally swings the bat like a man with a serious allergy to wood, managed to reach base three times.  He singled in the third, then added two walks and a run scored.  This is a trend unlikely to continue, so it's probably worth clipping the box score for use in the ol' time capsule. 

And cynics say nothing good ever comes out of D.C.  Shame on them.  More on the game tomorrow.

Ya we should play against Washington more often. But like I always say, the Dodgers cant win with PIerre and Gonzalez in this lineup

excellent pitching and timely hiiting again....your right BK we should play these guys a lot more... 9 total hits in both games and 1 of those should have been ruled an error against Abreu

Phil Jackson has got to go!

Oh Sorry...wrong blog.
