I am amazed at how hard Dukes hits the ball.

It's all about his step. What I've been noticing is that he breathes better - that's right, breathes better - during his ABs now, and his step is perfect more often than not. He's just looked a lot more comfortable up there since that bad start he had. It's good to see.

i wonder how long hernandez can keep this up. i give him 1 more week before he falls into oblivion

at least our lineup has Zimm at .270, Milledge at .260, Flores at .260, Belliard at .280, and Dukes inching towards .280.

I can accept all of those averages as long as ONE of them becomes a great run producer for us.

You guys think Bobby Cox is done after this season?

I dunno.

His age and this season might make him leave. I think he will.

Nice job by Shell getting out of that one. He always seems to do that. We need a walk-off NOW.

nats2playoffs · « **Reply #108:** August 30, 2008, 10:41:57 PM »

Steven Shell poised for his first win now, if we can get a walk off in the bottom of the 10th.

Nunez hasn't given up a homer yet this season. He's due.

IN GUZMONSTER WE TRUST

Nice job getting on by Hernandez. I'd choose to bunt here, but Manny would never do that.

ronnynat · « **Reply #112:** August 30, 2008, 10:48:43 PM »

Alright, we HAVE to win now, right? Bunt or a hit to right side would be nice here.

ronnynat · « **Reply #113:** August 30, 2008, 10:49:15 PM »

That works!! Come on, RZ!!

Edit: Okay, they walked him. Come on, Milledge!!

MrMadison · « **Reply #114:** August 30, 2008, 10:50:44 PM »

just a simple fly ball, Lastings. all we need is a fly ball to the outfield.

nothing fancy.

Preferably to center or left field.

smh @ Milledge.

come on Ronnie.

ronnynat · « **Reply #117:** August 30, 2008, 10:52:47 PM »

crap! Alright, I trust Belliard in this situation right now. This is when it's nice to have vets on your team.

ronnynat · « **Reply #118:** August 30, 2008, 10:53:33 PM »

Why the fack didn't he tag?!!!!!

MrMadison · « **Reply #119:** August 30, 2008, 10:53:54 PM »

smart play by hernandez. he would have been TOAST.

that ball wasn't hit far or high enough.

ronnynat · « **Reply #120:** August 30, 2008, 10:54:22 PM »

Chance to be a hero here for Dukes. A walk works.

eckseid · « **Reply #121:** August 30, 2008, 10:54:27 PM »

I think that would have been way too close.

The Chief · « **Reply #122:** August 30, 2008, 10:55:06 PM »

I'm already imagining AZ's posts if Dukes puts this one away

I don't know if he would've made it, but the center fielder didn't take a very good angle to that ball. Would have been close, I think.

Come on!!!
