I have a feeling Balester is going to give up a bunch of runs/bombs tonight.

crap I forgot he was pitching tonight. Hey did they start the Spanish language broadcasting yet? If so, I wonder how they're coming along and what station carries it.

Matt Chico just checked in he was pretty good. Hope the recovery is going well.

Yeah, it's on 1390 AM. I haven't listened to it yet though.

I thought you were going to the game tonight?

I was but I decided not to because there may be tons of people there just for the after game movie. It's a lame excuse now that I think of it especially since Balester is pitching.

However, like I told ronnynat, I have a tendency to go sometimes on Saturdays and after knocking down a few at the game going out drinking all night and I don't want to be hungover for tomorrow's game. I have to meet my brother at Reagan airport at 9 and then we'll probably be under the hot sun all afternoon so I don't want to be feeling like crap at the game.

Spider you going tomorrow? Me too bud. I'll be in 111 as usual but will probably venture to the Red Loft/Miller Lite scoreboard walk for a bit seeing as they won't be back home for a while.

It's crazy to think the next time I'll see the Nats in person is when I'm in Los Angeles after tomorrow's game!!!

spidernat · « **Reply #9:** July 12, 2008, 07:04:47 PM »

I looked for you in 11 once when I sat in 115 but I didn't know how to spot you. I'll be there tomorrow but I don't know where we'll be sitting. We plan on getting tickets from scalpers. Maybe I'll go by the scoreboard at some point. Are you going to be wearing your Jeffrey Hammonds jersey?

Is she really reading the lyrics to the National Anthem off the sheet of paper in her hand?

ronnynat · « **Reply #11:** July 12, 2008, 07:11:59 PM »

Today's REAL lineup:

Dukes
Milledge
Holliday
NJ
Zimmerman
Flores
Belliard
Lopez (we needed a SS)
Balester

Sorry. I had to.

Either my #11 DC blue batting practice jersey or my white Milledge jersey. We'll chat later about when/where to meet up.

LETS GO BALLY!

Most by Houston.

Too many fastballs. Damn Berkman owns us.

O cool, a bad spot in the 1st inning. Lets go Balester

eagleskins · « **Reply #20:** July 12, 2008, 07:18:12 PM »

Berkmann bends us over nightly.
