>> that nationals foen s offens making me yawn, man. here's the deal, last week strasburg pitched. i haven't seen that team so frustrated with themselves for that lack of offense because they didn't score a run. i can tell by ryan zimmerman. he's normally a bubbly, pleasant guy. and he was missed. and you could see it. i don't want to imagine what they're like tonight down in atlanta. the nationals have scored run one in the last 20 innings. the slumping offense followed them to atlanta. strasburg gave up six hits with two walks, seven strikeouts, allowed four runs, three earned. no run support. and the defense basically imploded in the seventh inning with an error by ian desmond. the nationals waste a solid effort by their best pitcher. strasburg didn't rack up many strikeouts early. bottom first, no score. brian mccann loops it to left. josh willingham, heads-up play. fires it to the plate. he tags out cabrera. willingham gets them out of trouble. bottom fifth, still no score. strasburg getting better. strikes out eric hinske. he'd finish the night with seven strikeouts including five straight in the fifth and sixth innings. but things started to unravel for the nationals in the bottom of the seventh. troy glaus up with two on. grounds it to ian desmond. what is this? he can't handle it. everybody's safe. bases are loaded with no outs. should have been a double play. instead desmond's 19th error. two batters later, after the braves took a 1-0 lead on a sacrifice fly. yunel escobar lines it to left field. brian mccann would score to make it 2-0. at that point jim riggleman had seen enough. strasburg pulled after going 6 1/3, striking out 7, walking 2 and giving up 3 earns. nationals lose, 5-0, but strasburg, like a pro. >> for the most part, you know, i did well enough, you know, kept the team in the ball game. you know, things aren't working for us right now. so we've got to keep our heads up and go out there and keep working hard. hopefully things will turn around tomorrow. >> that is a classy steven strasburg because he has every right to say what is going on? i could be with the red sox. right? or back in the minors having fun. >> with an umbrella drink on the beach. the nationals have placed tyler clippard on the dl. chile can relate to the nationals' offensive struggles. they could do nothing to stop five-time world cup champion brazil. brazil played with the confidence and execution that has come to define this team. we're in south africa. brazil looking to advance to the world cup quarterfinals for a sixth consecutive time. 34th minute. no score. brazil with the corner kick. and this is using your head. brazil's juan puts it into the net just like he lined it. brazil with the 1-0 lead. it wouldn't take them long to score more because just four minutes later, brazil on the break. looks like fabian oso was offsi. he carries it home. he scores. brazil beats chile, 3-0. they will play the netherlands. i've been thinking about the nationals. >> thank you. coming up next, imagine driving down the highway and seeing ads on license plates. we'll tell you where they're cons an executive with general electric collapsed on stage as vice president biden was giving a speech today. there he goes. jim campbell was listening to the vice president at a warehouse in louisville when he fell off his stool. campbell was the head of ge's appliance division. biden called for a doctor. campbell was alert when escorted out. his collapse was apparently related to the heat and he's going to be okay. rod blagojevich, once considered putting oprah winfrey into senate. that was made today when a secret fbi tape was played during the corruption trial. he called winfrey a kingmaker and said no one could criticize him for putting the talk show host in president obama's former senate seat. california lawmakers are considering making license plates digital, a move that could make some money for the state. the electronic plates would display ads after a car was stopped for more than four seconds. it would switch back to a standard plate when the car started moving again. critics argue that the plate would be distracting and fear the technology could be hacked. lawmakers say revenue from ads on the license plates could help close a $19 billion budget deficit. hundreds of area "twilight" fans got an early look at the third movie in the series. there was an advanced screening of "eclipse" tonight at the uptown theater in cleveland park. people lined up around the block on connecticut avenue to get into the screening. those who didn't get to see it will have to wait for the movie's wide-release premiere on wednesday. he's not big with teenage girls.

70s. when the rain came through d.c. but now it's back up into the 80s and it is kind of steamy out there. >> but a relief from what it was earlier. >> and it's going to be even nicer, especially when we get to wednesday and thursday. i don't want anybody to think it's going to be in the 80s tomorrow because it's not. it will be less humid. tonight a little on the steamy side. that will gradually start to change as we push some of this humidity down to the south. there is a little bit of shower activity, maybe a thunderstorm. i haven't seen any cloud-to- ground lightning strikes from this particular storm up to the north of us. and it is weakening. you see a little weakening cell came right across 270. central sections of montgomery county. that is really dying out quickly. and as we zoom in a little tighter here, you'll be able to see this storm just moving across i-95. it's just moving south of fulton right now. burtonsville as well. and it's moving kind of on off to the east headed toward northern sections of prince george's county. we may have a couple of these from time to time this evening. i don't think we'll have widespread showers or thunderstorms. certainly nothing is going to be severe. with this type of an air mass, it's still fairly unstable with all the moisture in it and still warm, too, so there may be a shower passing by or thunderstorm overnight tonight till about 3:00 in the morning. then i still think we start to dry out quite rapidly. in terms of highs today, more records on the board. bwi marshall 99 degrees for a high. that was a record. dulles was 94. reagan 97 degrees. in terms of the temperature, gaithersburg is 77. here in the city we're 84. quantico is 85. and the heat index right now, if you factor in the relative humidity here in town it feels like it's 91 degrees. but let me show you where the cooler air is. pittsburgh right now 71. elkins, west virginia 75. so the cooler air, it's just to the northwest of us. and it will slowly begin to start coming in overnight tonight and through the day tomorrow. then look at international falls. 57. madison 58. there's another push of some cooler, drier air farther to the north. over the next couple of days as high pressure fills in, that is going to bring some of the cooler, less humid air in here. just south of the boundary, though, it will still be hazy, hot and humid but it looks like this boundary will be able to get through us tomorrow morning and continue slowly pushing down to the south and eventually it brings in some much nicer temperatures. 83 for wednesday. tomorrow we're 91. the humidity levels will be coming down through the day. thursday will be 82 degrees. friday we start going back up. the way it's looking right now the holiday weekend we're back into the lower 90s. it's looking pretty good actually for saturday and for july 4th which is sunday. showers and thunderstorms moving to the south of us. we watch this little batch to the northwest this evening coming out of western pa but it does look like that's beginning to weaken quite a bit so i'm not too terribly worried about that. in terms of this tropical storm which is alex moving up to the north and to the west now. still forecast to become a hurricane as soon as tomorrow and make a move into the southern sections of texas, northern sections of mexico. that still keeps it away from the oil spill. overnight tonight a few clouds. very mild. 75 degrees tomorrow. not as humid. still warm, though. 91 for a high. and then it really gets nice. we've had 17 days so far in june with temperatures 90- degree plus. we've had six days 95 plus. we deserve temperatures in the 80s. >> yes, sir, we do. >> yes, we did. thank you, gary. two brand new studies are raising concerns now about
