Baker bemoans strikeouts, homers again bedevil Scherzer

Baker bemoans strikeouts, homers again bedevil Scherzer
MILWAUKEE - The hushed tone of Dusty Baker spoke volumes after a 5-3 loss to the Brewers on Friday night stretched the Nationals' losing streak to a season-worst six games and left a once-thriving offense searching for answers. Baker can live with the occasional skid - it happens to every team at some point during a season, and he didn't think his Nationals would escape baseball normalcy. But the alarming rate at which his hitters struck out against five Milwaukee pitchers - 16 times in all,...

Scherzer weathers first, wilts in sixth (Nats lose 5-3)

Scherzer weathers first, wilts in sixth (Nats lose 5-3)
MILWAUKEE - The Nationals desperately need a Max Scherzer-like outing from Max Scherzer to halt a five-game skid and in the early going at Miller Park, the right-hander was pretty much all or nothing. A weird first inning saw Scherzer strike out the side, walk the bases loaded and surrender a two-run single to Aaron Hill on a 1-2 pitch. The result: a 2-0 Brewers lead. The Nats haven't been able to get anything going offensively against Brewers righty Kyle Davies. Bryce Harper hustled a bloop...

Ribs back in place, Strasburg on track to start series finale

Strasburg said he felt fine after an upper back strain forced him out of a marquee matchup against Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw on Monday night, and sounded encouraged that he'd make his...

Game 74 lineups: Nats at Brewers

Game 74 lineups: Nats at Brewers
MILWAUKEE - The Nationals continue their 10-game road trip tonight at Miller Park, and send right-hander Max Scherzer to the mound in hopes of snapping out of a season-high five-game losing streak. Scherzer hasn't seen a lot of the Brewers in his career, but has made three starts against them among his four appearances and carries a 1-0 record and 1.64 ERA into tonight's game. Yep, those are numbers that bring hope to a team with a black cloud circling over it. He'll be opposed by...
