His second decisive home run in three games, and both times Church kind of looked disappointed. All the longballs are putting him off pace to hit 50 doubles this year. "Aw, jimminy," you could almost hear him thinking, "I hit that one too hard. That's gonna be four. Heckity darn." The pitching has remained consistently strong. But the Nats offense has of late been making mooks like Kyle Lohse look like Brandon Webb. So when Ryan Church steps up to make himself the little engine that slugged game-transforming home runs in consecutive wins, he chugs back down the hill with back-to-back Majority Leader honors.

Delegate Count: Cowboy Randy 12, Z-man 9, Dmitri 6, F-Lo 5, Big Fella 5, Church 5, Chief 4, Power Austin 4, Officer Schneider 3, Belliard 2.
