What baseball team currently has the longest winning streak in MLB?
Hmmm...
http://espn.go.com/mlb/standings
6-4 in the last 10 games..in comparison the Red Sox and Phillies are 5-5.
Interesting..and they had a four game winning streak last week too. Could it be the Nats are actually improving? Looks like it to me...:)

16. Joe Jacoby was part of the greatest commercial of all time
It was for large screen tv. That's where the 'And yes' came from.

4. It matters little
when you're still 36 games under .500

Btw, the Giants are 8-2 in their last 10.

9. The bats have been too streaky all year.
Outside of a couple of players everyone has been hot or cold. Everything else has been pretty decent, but their bats are loud one night and silent the next.

I only need them to stay in the race for a few more weeks until football starts and the real sports get under way. :P

11. Would be nice
but they're just playing spoiler at this point. They have no pressure on them at all.

Happens in Baseball all the time.
