After his first game off in more than a year, 3B Ryan Zimmerman was back in the lineup last night in Houston. Zimmerman's on-base percentage of .252 heading into the night was the fourth lowest among National League regulars. . . . OF Elijah Dukes continued his rehabilitation stint at Class AAA Columbus, and Manager Manny Acta said there is still no timetable for his return. Dukes entered last night's game hitting .286 (4 for 14) in four games.
