The key to beating Glavine is to lay off that crap he likes to throw on the outside part of the plate. You have to make him throw you strikes.

Nice play Larry

Nice hit, RZ! Come on Nick, be patient.

Nick absolutely has to lay off the DP ball here. We have to give Lastings a chance; he's pretty good against lefties.

WTG Nicky J! Too bad Francoeur has that arm.

There we go, NJ!! Come on LM!

Nick hit that one hard!

Our hitters have pretty good strike recognition tonight. What's going on?

BTW, they said on Nats Xtra that Dukes will play both games of the double header for Potomac.

Figures.

KnorrForYourMoney · « **Reply #35:** April 29, 2008, 07:27:55 PM »

That wasn't good at all.

spidernat · « **Reply #36:** April 29, 2008, 07:28:07 PM »

We have to be the absolute worst team with the bases loaded.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #37:** April 29, 2008, 07:28:15 PM »

Pathetic. All of that great patience and hitting goes to crap because of Milledge. He's the worst match-up against Glavine. Glavine knows he'll chase that crap on the outside of the plate.

I might as well start drinking now

Mark down non-clutch at-bat #1 for the night.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #40:** April 29, 2008, 07:29:49 PM »

Pena is another terrible match-up for Glavine. Glavine knows guys like him and Milledge will chase all of that bullcrap he throws off the plate.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #41:** April 29, 2008, 07:31:12 PM »

Dukes just got his first hit.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #42:** April 29, 2008, 07:31:35 PM »

God, Redding. Can you make it any easier for him?

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #43:** April 29, 2008, 07:32:27 PM »

Bench Milledge's ass. He blew that play too. That was Kearns' ball right there.

eagleskins · « **Reply #44:** April 29, 2008, 07:32:40 PM »

Milledge has a noodle arm.

PC · « **Reply #45:** April 29, 2008, 07:33:47 PM »

Who wants to bet THEY get a clutch hit?

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #46:** April 29, 2008, 07:33:51 PM »

Knight is livid

Milledge has shown that he lacks baseball instincts and acumen.

Thanks, Lastings. He's cost us at least 2 runs thus far.

KnorrForYourMoney · « **Reply #49:** April 29, 2008, 07:37:19 PM »

freaking stupid play there. NJ hesitated and it cost them the DP.
