booooooo.. this team is so embarrassing.. should never have hit Giles and should not have gave up a hit to Renteria of all players

I knew a split was gonna be the best we could hope for. We suck at 4-game series

and i've liked schroder too.

seriously...
wagner, hughes and schroder all have legitimate shots of getting sent down this weekend

Nationals 0

Braves 5
This is the point in a game like this where Frank usually gives up and surrenders...But these are the lowly Braves...SOMEBODY SHOW UP AT THE PLATE...NOW, Please!

Yep, they are all very similar. All of them throw a 91-92 mph fastball and a mid 80s slider. If they are not perfect with their control, then they get rocked. It would be nice if they could throw a curve or changeup.

Some base runners and score would be great!

NJ out on 1 pitch. this team's head is not in the game

Didn't Schroder used to play piano for Lucy in the Peanuts comic strip?

yeah churchie!!!

Nice double Church.

another pitiful inning. We can't hit off of their crappy pen once again. We will be lucky to take 1 game from the hot Phillies, they actually have a great bullpen.

You hope for a hit when he throws out a baserunner...

K for Hughes. We've seen worse.
Too bad for the walk.

But it's an ok inning.

Yeah, we need baserunners, then hopefully someone can drive them in. We've got Escobar and Soriano up 2 and 3 in the inning, so its possible!

Come on offense, atleast don't get shutout today.

2k6nats · « **Reply #143:** August 17, 2006, 03:19:39 PM »

The homestand hasnt been bad, with a 4 ERA and we've gone 4-5 with 3 saves. But average with RISP has been horrible at .231

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #144:** August 17, 2006, 03:19:52 PM »

you are never going to score runs when you don't get the leadoff guy on.

expos96 · « **Reply #145:** August 17, 2006, 03:21:03 PM »

Nice Hit Alex.

2k6nats · « **Reply #146:** August 17, 2006, 03:21:05 PM »

As Charlie said, Bernie Castro has been great. He's provided a spark in the offense. They should have him as a Ryan Freel super-sub kind of guy. No starts, just playing time when needed. Kind of a go-to guy.

2k6nats · « **Reply #147:** August 17, 2006, 03:21:29 PM »

Good job Alex!

2k6nats · « **Reply #148:** August 17, 2006, 03:23:42 PM »

And the Nats go down in the 8th..............

expos96 · « **Reply #149:** August 17, 2006, 03:23:53 PM »

Inning over....
It's the same old song for 8 innings now.
