Nationals vs Reds, Game 4

[KnorrForYourMoney]

Come on, Espy

Give our 'pen the lead

[PC]

MY IAN!!!

[The Chief]

  PC-SF-esque

It worked!!!!

[Slateman]

Wow ... Desmond

[welch]

Right now, Danny!

[KnorrForYourMoney]

Do it again.

Ugh, too bad we're only going to tie it.  We really need the lead.

[spidernat]

Their catcher cannot hang on to the baseball.

[ernie0326]

Any arguments about sending Ankiel home?? LOLOL!

[The Chief]

Somebody should probably explain the reverse jinx for the benefit of the new guys.

[Lintyfresh85]

lol, good one.  Though that wasn't really his base-running skills, that was more of a Nyjer-esque blunder.

Lombo beating out an infield single at Wrigley during game 2?

Chief got it right.

One time against the Dodgers, Nyjer hit a double/triple into the RF corner and Stammen was on first... Craig started slowing up and Nyjer kept going into third and was tagged out before Stammen touched home so we lost the run.

[CJames0569]

gutsy baserunning by the Nats today, I like it!

[The Chief]

I bet JZ is wondering where the hell this offense is when he's pitching.

[zimm_da_kid]

17 hits for desi on the year now

[Born-AgainNatsFan]

Anyone else's heart stop a little on the run to home? I thought Ankiel wasn't gonna make it

[KnorrForYourMoney]

MY IAN!!!

PC = Lub Borbbleglob

Do it again.

Ugh, too bad we're only going to tie it.  We really need the lead.

Well, I'm no good at this

[nats2playoffs]

7th   Ian Desmond singled to center, R Ankiel scored, I Desmond to second advancing on throw.

Reds/Umps 5
Nationals   5


Ian Desmond - B E A S T !!

[KingHarper]

I bet JZ is wondering where the hell this offense is when he's pitching.

 

[mitlen]

We got the hammers in the 8th.   Let's get a 1-2-3 here and let 'em do the thunder.

[Lintyfresh85]

PC = Lub Borbbleglob

It would make sense.

[The Chief]

Oh yeah, I almost forgot:

TAKE THAT HATERS!!!!

[PebbleBall]

Their catcher cannot hang on to the baseball.

We definitely live in a glass house.

[BerkeleyNat]

So yeah, I'm pretty much all AZ-esque over Desmond now, but that can change at a moment's notice.

It's not quite on the level of Hammonds/Brian Roberts...but it's close. 

[KingHarper]

Last year, I thouht Espinosa was a keeper and Desmond was not that great at all. I think its swapped

[The Chief]

We definitely live in a glass house.

Wish I had a gif of that x-mo replay of Ramos earlier, the look on his face was priceless.

But don't anybody go making one for at least the next 48 hours

[thepointe01]

Well i guess nats fans had their fill of relatively non-heartstopping baseball yesterday, back to stop hearts today.
