Ryan Zimmerman has taken Roy Oswalt deep twice tonight. Everyone else in a Nats' uniform? 2-for-18 with eight strikeouts.

Still, the Nats and Astros are tied 3-3 in the bottom of the sixth.

Mike O'Connor is now on in relief of Odalis Perez, but don't get worried. O'Connor still will start Saturday against the Marlins. Today would have been his normal day to throw in the bullpen, so the Nats are just using the game as an opportunity for him to get his work in. O'Connor won't pitch more than one inning, I can assure you.
