old mr. reliable livan hernandez lead the washington nationals to their fifth straight win. livan, with an awesome performance wednesday night, a three hit complete game shutout. this is livans fiftieth career complete game, and his one hundredth career home win. he helps the nats to their longest winning streak in two years. thats correct, they havent won five in a row since o nine. finally, an actual winning streak. the nats are coming together as a team, and their prospects and hopeful return of strasburg next season give an outstanding outlook for the future. still a very young team, veterans like livan are showing the youngins how to be professional, and how to believe in themselves. what a competitor, he seemed to pitch with ease, his pitches hitting the exaxt spot pudge wanted him to. the constant professional, hernandez has been all over the league. once met, once diamonback, the nationals are extremely lucky to have a veteran pitcher with so much mlb experience. when the time comes, hopefully he can help guide the nats young pitching staff over the hump. now, if we can get harper and rendon up from the minors by next season, we have a great shot to challenge philadelphia for the division. nats management is doing the right thing, the skins should take notes.
