OT: Nats, Wiz, O's, Ravens, Terps, Navy, Gtown, Mystics, 2019-TBD

[marcel snapshot]

Every time I see Suero pitch, it's the same thing - he starts off getting ahead of a hitter with what looks like great, unhittable stuff, fails to get a call on a pitch that's a borderline strike, and then falls to pieces.

I honestly think the Nats May come back here.

2-8 isn’t a good look, but....

 

[Ridley Simon]

3-8

 

[Ridley Simon]

4-8. But really dumb play by Kendrick. Need baserunners now. SMH

 

[Marshall]

With apologies to the Mystics and the Bayhawks, yesterday was an old-school Washington sports shitshow.

The bring a starter for middle relief strategy really bit the Nats in the ass last night. Holding out hope they can win tonight. But even if they do, and they go on to win this series, they can't keep bringing in starters for middle relief. At some point 1 or all 3 starters will be out of gas.

But were critical in the WC game and game 2, I have no problem with it (and Corbin was 1 strike away from avoiding that epic collapse)

Nats are a flawed team with that bullpen, everyone knows it;
they basically need at least a 5 run lead going into the late innings to have a chance to go far which their bats haven't provided yet

On paper, they lose the series obviously, but that's why you play the games[/cliche]; tonight Scherzer and the offense may crush it, we'll see

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Corbin was our only chance to get 2+ innings. Just sucks I have no hope for tonight.

Maybe they pull a Caps and win when I finally give up hope

Feels like Max is pitching to conserve his pitch count so,he can go late into the game, and the Dodgers know it so they don't have to worry about chasing balls out of the zone

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

The rain may have cooled down the dodgers and got us more time before the bullpen

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Zimm!!!

Happy for that guy. Mr Nat.

 

[Calicaps]

Wow. LA has come undone.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Wow. LA has come undone.

Actually, a lot of Dodger fans were thinking it would be worse when Hill got the start. Good guy, but this wasn't a match up. I was telling a friend today watch out for Zimmerman.

 

[marcel snapshot]

Kind of a big moment here

 

[IafrateOvie34]

This is why I love baseball so much after hockey. It may be a slow game, but wow the potential.

 

[marcel snapshot]

Beast!

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Great win.

[Calicaps]

Oh shit. I forgot he was throwing the first pitch. Missed it.

 

[hockeykicker]

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Man I'm pulling for these guys. Would be awesome.

 

[hockeykicker]

 

[zappa4ever]

The pitchers pitched, the hitters hit, great W!

Just gotta win 1 game with Stras at the helm, put this franchise into new territory and give the fans something to cheer about

 

[Bananas]

The Nats can’t even sell out elimination games with Scherzer on the mound.

Pitiful.
