Nationals vs Phillies, Game 2

[lastobjective]

oh hot damn

[sportsfan882]

The Nats balls never carry out of the ballpark, sigh

[RobDibblesGhost]

freak you Bob Carpenter, freak you up the ass.

In his defense, Charlie got really excited too.

[sportsfan882]

That ball looked like it was going out and literally went straight down as it was nearing the wall.

[Obed_Marsh]

C'mon. It is shark week after all.

[Smithian]

Acceptable from the radio guys. They usually do well.

[Displaced Bucco]

Let's bring up the Syracuse announcers

Papelbon takes forever.

Papelbon takes forever.

He lulls you to sleep and then has that mid 90s heater and devastating splitter

[RobDibblesGhost]

Game over.  We lose the series.

[Kentucky_National]

Terrible. At least the Braves lost.

[sportsfan882]

Way to chase that splitter, Roger. Great AB

[Jordanz Meatballz]

Terrible. At least the Braves lost.

Not used to this losing feeling of hoping other teams choke.

[RobDibblesGhost]

This doesn't feel as bad as last night's loss, but still, pretty piss poor effort from our offense.  Two unearned runs is all we could muster.

[aussienatsfan]

Damn shame, thought Danny had tied it

[sportsfan882]

This doesn't feel as bad as last night's loss, but still, pretty piss poor effort from our offense.  2 unearned runs.

8 straight innings without any runs at home against a last place team.

And tomorrow we have our #5 SP vs their ace.

We've scored in 1 of 18 innings in this series, and both runs were unearned.  Pretty crappy.

[Obed_Marsh]

And tomorrow we have our #5 SP vs their ace.

Which we will likely win because it makes no logical sense whatsoever.

The baseball fairy is a harsh mistress.

And they won't score a run tomorrow vs Hamels. He's given up 1 ER in 16 IP vs the Nats this season.

[PANatsFan]

Bo Porter is the goat

[NoShoesNoShirtNoDice]

And they won't score a run tomorrow vs Hamels. He's given up 1 ER in 16 IP vs the Nats this season.

The Nats should have DeRosa lead off tomorrow and have him rush the mound and beat the crap out of Hamels. At least then he'd be useful. Then again, DeRosa can't hit anything.

[sportsfan882]

Bernadina and Espy have gone ice cold. We aren't able to withstand the loss of Desmond (and Zim) without them coming through like they did over most of the road trip.

[sportsfan882]

Would have been nice if Edwin hadn't given up all those homers but hard to blame the pitching when the offense musters nothing after the first inning.

[hammondsnats]

I didn't say it was, read the posts

I said 3 runs, 6Ks  - quality start is a stupid stat

okay sure!

[hammondsnats]

SF, bernadina isn't an everyday guy.  he had one good stretch.
