Nats go for playoff berth; Phillies fight to stay alive

WASHINGTON (AP)  Dave Martinez's words were drenched with emotion as he stood in a booze-soaked clubhouse, Washington Nationals players celebrating all around after clinching an NL wild card exactly four months after they woke up with a 19-31 record and calls for him to be replaced as manager.
Quite a turnaround for Martinez - and for his club.
