this is the main line traveling north of duke street. of 395 is currently blocked because of this accident activity. coming northbound being no one is able to get past scene at this time. if you were merging on to the main line from duke street, that ramp remains open at this point. they are allowing some traffic to continue northbound from duke to continue northbound on 395. but it is the main line that remains closed as you guys travel north of the capital beltway headed up towards the accident scene. the hov lanes are open right now. anticipate a rubbernecking delay at that location. it is the main line of 395 shut down at duke street because of this accident activity. if you are traveling in maryland, it is southbound georgia avenue at brookville road. that is closed off in each direction for you guys coming in out of olney this morning. the road is shut down with wires down across the highway. across the mean, no accidents to report right -- across the american legion bridge, no accidents to repo right now. that's a check of your fo

elijah dukes back with the nationals.n for him, as he tried to solidify his place in the nats lineup. >> he's going to be out there, not every day, i would say, five days a week probably for the next two months. it's an important stretch for elijah. the nationals need to know by the end of the season if this guy is long-term. they have seen it in pieces here and there, but not over the long haul. it has been a long stretch. >> if he's not the answer to play there, with willingham playing left full-time, and will be here, and nyjer playing center, who do we have to play left field or right field consistently? >> it's a good question. between dunn and willingham, obviously, that's two guys. you have to -- it sounds like the nationals are not going to be looking elsewhere for first base men in the off season. they have these guys for one position. >> thank you, mark. you look at what elijah dukes has in front of him, you see that trade go, nick johnson league, dunn vacating the outfield, you think elijah has this set up, but

either we're paying homage to a classic tv movie or we're going to duke it out. yes, it is time for america's favorite segment, it is time for mike and dan to "put up or shut up." i'm not going to say who's who in the odd couple. safest to stay neutral. this is where they agree on a direction of a stock but disagree over the proper options strategy. procter & gamble set to report earnings on wednesday. the company is the fourth biggest component of the s&p 500. so a big one that could determine the market's direction. determine the market direction. dan got the first punch last week. so, mike, it is your turn to kick it off. >> this is an interesting story right here. procter & gamble have already reported. the results have been mixed. i don't really know 100% which way i'm going to come out on this thing. usually with a catalyst coming up, i like to sell premium because i think it's overpriced. the thing is premium in this name is incredibly cheap already. i can't sell that front month option without going and buying something else against it. so what i'm lookin

[ laughter ] you can stay out there for 6 innings, that's a quality start. an tonight to win. that's all he has to do. i don't think morton will be around to end the game garrett is looking at 104. >> bob: 4 to 5. if he gets an out. laroche. that's a good fastball. 3-2. fastball away. a base hit. up the middle. that will bring up cedeno. >> rob: trying to hit it up the middle. getting it by guzman. super cedeno is up. >> bob: high strike to cedeno. flared out to gonzales the first time. >> rob: and break minus two and the vertical break was minus zero. >> bob: you are reading the auxiliary score board again.
