raul chavez, 1-for-3. and a remoonedder that joe inglett will bat after that. he came in on the double switch to bat 9th. >> rob: we talked about there were going to be growing pains with the young staff, not just losses, this nice winning streak, but having too many guys at the major league level and you've got a lot of money invested in a few of them. a lot of them are very, very young. that's a tough decision, sometimes, actually a good one to have because then other organizations see that you have extra pitching. well, we need extra pitchers to help us in the pennant race, what do you want for them? and that's how you start your future in washington. >> bob: . >> bob: raul chavez hit a ball hard, robbed by willie harris and then a flyball that ended the 7th. guzman for another one. you can follow the nats on your. it's phone, your ipod touch. it's called mlb.com. featureing play-by-play video highlights. visit nationals.com on your. it's phone or ipod touch to purchase. this is jo inglett, 30-year-old infielder from sacramento, played at the university of n

raul chavez coming up. cecil, 93 pitches, 62 strikes through 6. but detwiler, a total turn around this evening, even though he has given up a run. but that was solo homer. he was really attacking the zone. >> rob: he has not broken that change-up out too much tonight. i think in those couples of innings where he was economical, got the big outs on the change-up. for a young kid, he is doing much better at not throwing all four pitches in the 1st inning, first time through the batting order so they can see exactly what he throws. >> rob: for people who don't know what we do, we are talking for the opposing announcers to find out what the pitch erythros. they do exactly the same thing for us. they want to know what they throw. nick johnson will make you three everything in your repertoire because he will stand right there until you throw a strike. >> bob: 2-1 to chavez. flyball, centerfield, using the ballpark. killy harris. 7th inning stretch time. ross detwiler's longest outing in his major league career. 3-1 nats. take a stretch. it's on. - it's

he just fell right out of the glove of raul chavez. he had the catcher and the umpire in his line of sight. >> bob: that ball. >> rob: that ball gets out of the sight. did you see barajas -- or not barajas but chavez much he was looking at the runner. >> bob: thighs try at the breaking ball. >> rob: i think nick was shaded by dunn and the catcher and didn't know where the ball was. >> bob: yes. screened. >> rob: i'm thinking of the hockey term. >> bob: like screening the goaly. >> rob: screening the goaly. >> reporter: keeping him in first base kept rolen in the milled will. >> reporter: what are you doing? >> rob: come on, nick. >> bob: one on, one out. scoreless game, bottom of the 4th. these teams have really played a low-scoring series and that's an offspeed breaking ball. he took a little bit more off. his previous one was about 86. that was 82. and two strikeouts in a row. >> rob: here is brett cecil on the delivery. he has some kind of offspeed, fastball, change-up and our expo captures -- x-mo captures adam dunn. >> bob: that x

millar tags the throw from chavez. >> bob: is it c chavez or chavez. >> rob: chavez. >> bob: raul chavez. >> rob: pretty good cannon for an arm, though. >> bob: yep. he was with the pirates for 42 games last year. they got him in that trade. actually, picked him up as a free agent in december. good defensive guys back there. and gonzalez hangs tough on a pitch up. we are looking at those umpires. telling them, don't punch me out. i'm coming to get you. >> by the way, i did a little bit of investigative report. i know what amateur umpires make. i spotted them in the president's club at about an hour before the game and how they are in the first row still is beyond us. >> rob: still baffles you. >> bob: yes. >> rob: they could be on the take. >> bob: i tossed and turned a few times last night thinking about this. that's a little pop-up to millar and he made the play. now, had he not made that play, dukes would have been in no man's land because he was only about 15 feet off the bag. but kevin millar grabbed it with a nice play for the first out. and that was a fair ball when he made that p

on deck, raul chavez, the catcher. breaking ball, low and away, two on, two out. now a base hit could put toronto on top. chavez, 1-for-4, opposite field base hit. and the play of the game by willie harris with millar aboard leading off the 5th, the reason we're still here. so lind at second after the walk issued by colome. and millar at first on the walk issued by tavarez. >> bob: there is a flyball to center. willie harris is there. number 11 will lead off the bottom of the 11th. ryan zimmerman, adam dunn and elijah dukes to follow in a 3-3 tie. pp it's easy to identify the leaders of tomorrow. they're all around us. which is why pnc created grow up great. a $100 million program that prepares young children for school. and the world they'll inherit.... sooner than you think. pnc. leading the way. at dodge, we build mechanical bulls. we build freight trains. we build toolboxes. we build field offices. we build fan clubs. we build the all-new, award winning dodge ram. come see what we've built for you. . >> bob: the nats have bucking the national league ea

ken millar handles the duties at first base, raul chavez behind the plate and bret cecil, from dunkirk, maryland, gets the start tonight with a team batting average of .238. that is second in the american league. nick johnson had a great night. 3-for-3, has had 19 multi-hit games, 10 straight ball games has hit safely. here is the rest of the line- up.  nats' patting am as a tea .257 tied for 9th in the national league. we are lucky to have a terrific first base coach with us and that's a legendary ballplayer who made his name with about six different ball clubs, just retired a couple of years ago. i had a chance to visit earlier with first base coach marquis grissom. interesting that marquis grissom is getting his first coaching job in the major league after retiring only three years ago after 17 great years in the major league. you are doing something. you are giving back to the game like you gave back to the kids in atlanta. >> that's right, johnny. that's a great opportunity for me to get to that next level. after i retired, i went home and started
