 And the Nats' next batter would be Joey Manessis, and Manessis would add to the Nationals' lead. Peterson holds the set at the letters. The lefties pitch. Swing and a line shot off the middle. It's a base hit into center field. Thomas will score. Ramirez to second, and the Nationals lead 2 to nothing. Manessis snaps an 0 for 19 skid with a rocket into center field. That's RBI 42 for Joey Manessis.
