Bob Melvin was NL Manager of the Year in 2007. 

The team with the worst record in baseball handed the Los Angeles Dodgers their first home loss of the season. 

LOS ANGELES 

--3B Ryan Zimmerman wasted no time keeping his hitting streak alive Wednesday night. 

The Nationals have tried overhauling their bullpen already this season. 

--RHP Daniel Cabrera has not pitched especially well for the Nationals six times around the rotation, but he hasn't been helped much by his defense, either. 

Something unexpected happened Wednesday night atDodger Stadium. 

 

The Los Angeles Dodgers broke the modern major league record for a home winning streak to start a season with their 13th straight victory, 10-3 over the Washington Nationals on Wednesday night. 

Joe Torre has warned his players about letting a record home start go to their heads. 

The Los Angeles Dodgers are off to quite a start, but manager Joe Torre doesn't want his team to get caught up with numbers. 

Joe Torre settled back into his chair in the cramped manager's office at Dodger Stadium for his postgame interview when he was interrupted by his boss, there to offer a congratulatory handshake. 

WASHINGTON - Perhaps fitting because the Washington Nationals andAstros' bullpens kept giving away leads, neither team walked away with a victory Tuesday afternoon at Nationals Park. 

After a wretched April, the Nationals started to get their act together in the last week. 

The Nationals will have to wait until July to find out if they can survive the damage inflicted by their bullpen Tuesday.
