Wang makes last start memorable as Nats roll

The Nationals played spoiler on Saturday afternoon, taking a 4-1 decision over the Braves. Chien-Ming Wang lasted six innings and allowed one run on four hits in his final start of the season.

In possible last start, Strasburg can play spoiler

The Braves head to Washington with their NL Wild Card lead dwindling and Stephen Strasburg waiting, but they'll have a man with a strong record against the Nationals in Tim Hudson on the mound.

Livan looks to build on last start vs. Rox

Saturday's matchup between the Rockies and the Nationals could very well be a low-scoring junction, considering that both starting pitchers — Washington's Livan Hernandez and Colorado's Jhoulys Chacin — are coming off of strong starts.

Dunn may have played last game in DC

At long last, 'Jesus' meets the 'J-Hey Kid'

The season has given us so much already, and now we have this, a confrontation of dazzling rookies that is unmatched in our collective memories. This is not merely plebe vs. plebe; it is rather phenom vs. phenom. Brace yourself for Strasburg vs. Heyward on Tuesday night in D.C.
