One down, two to go
The big unknown — can Big Brown, 1-2 favorite, come back on short rest? — will be answered when he and 11 rivals go to post at 6:15 p.m.
TWT Video: Ready for the Preakness
Palmer, Sutton renew rivalry in MASN booth
Orioles Hall of Famer Jim Palmer joined the Nationals television analyst, Hall of Famer Don Sutton, in the MASN booth last night, with both Orioles announcer Gary Thorne and Nationals broadcaster Bob Carpenter breaking up doing the play-by-play in several inning sections.
Blown leads seal Nats' fate in loss
The tipping point arrived in the fifth inning — just a pair of rudimentary mistakes that became enough to turn this game, which could have been the Nationals' fourth win in five days, into a 5-3 loss that played out like so many of the not-quite-there games the young club has lost this season.

Trying to finish what they started
The Mystics' blitz toward the playoffs fell just short, but the impact of that improved play has carried over into this season, which begins on the road tonight against the Indiana Fever.
The ageless wonder
United will rely on forward Jaime Moreno, now in his 13th season with the club, at Chivas USA tonight. Moreno has remained one of the team's few bright spots, leading United with three goals and three assists.
