Laynce Nix went 4-for-4 with a home run for the Nationals, but left the game with an Achilles injury and may not be able to play tonight. Washington fell a game under .500 at 40-41.
Texas, which has also won seven in a row in Houston, moved one step closer to locking up the trophy on Tuesday, as Ian Kinsler went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a triple to lead the Rangers to a 7-3 win.
Josh Hamilton and Mitch Moreland also blasted solo home runs while Yorvit Torrealba added an RBI double for the Rangers, who have won six of their past 10 contests overall.
Jordan Lyles (0-3) worked six innings in defeat for Houston, giving up five runs on 10 hits.
"It just didn't fall my way tonight," Lyles said. "I don't know what the ball- strike ratio was tonight, but it couldn't have been good."
Lewis has faced the Astros six times (three starts) and is 1-1 with a 1.78 ERA.
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - When the Phillies signed Cliff Lee in the offseason, they envisioned him being part of a rotation of four aces that would carry them into October. After Lee did his part in Tuesday's opener of this highly-anticipated set with the Boston Red Sox, Philadelphia turns to its wild card tonight in Vance Worley.
Worley faced Seattle on that day and hurled five innings of one-run ball in a no-decision. He then toed the rubber against the Athletics on Friday and carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning. The 23-year-old righty ended up scattering a hit and four walks over six scoreless frames, but got a no- decision in his team's 1-0 walk-off victory.

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.
The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.
The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.
Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
