I don't know how this freaking HP ump has a job.  Nice start, Shawn.
That last hit was a bit scary, though.  Still glad that it's all zeros on the board.

Let's get some runs!

BTW, did anyone notice that powerboater69 joined this site a couple of hours ago?

Let's see the replay.  Okay, I guess not, MASN.

Totally looked fair.

He wasn't even sure if it was out until he rounded 2nd and looked at the ump

That should be scored a hit but Kearns wasn't hustling in the replay so he must've figured it would be an easy out.

This is by far the worst HP ump I have seen all year.  What an idiot.  Good one, Lo Duca.  Chased ball 3.

Lo Duca didn't even attempt to leg that out.  Manny should get on his ass for not hustling.

That home run by Johnson would not have even reached the warning track at Nationals Park not to mention it would've barely left the infield at RFK.

Amazingly, the Cardinals, Dodgers, and Rockies had more going into tonight.

But yeah, DP's are a huge problem with this team.

As is every other aspect of hitting.

bad, bad pitch Shawn.  Why throw him a meatball in that situation?

horrible.  Hill is just lobbing meatballs down the middle. Why won't he throw his breaking ball?

We can't win any game in this series if we don't score 6+ runs.  Houston has too good an offense.

Horrible, horrible inning for Hill.  This could be the worst he's been since that implosion inning against Florida.
