Finny best closer in the game

I gotta believe Doo is making a difference.

Finny best closer in the game

Isn't that 10 straight saves for Fin. I saw the Yankee closer tonight. I don't know how he makes the ball move like that.

Finny declares fine' striking out the side. 6 ks over the last 2.1 IP from Harvey and Finnegan. Nice work. Team shutout!

[GataNats]

What are Finnys numbers minus that first game?

[JCA-CrystalCity]

Gameday showed how much Harvey and Finnegan attacked cold zones

Finny’s slider is a game changing pitch

What are Finnys numbers minus that first game?

Second game. Outside of it, 3 hits and one unearned run entering tonight.

[aspenbubba]

Best 9th inning Finnegan has pitched all season. 3 K’s on 13 pitches.

[Scrapple]

Winning a 1-0 game. Damn.

Niiiiiiice!!!!! Starting to look forward to watching our team play again. Finnegan, Harvey, and others seem to have improved a great deal on our pitching staff. Maybe we’ll start winning some games I go to at home. 

 

LETS GO NATS!!!

[Slateman]

Nice win

[Scrapple]

I gotta believe Doo is making a difference.

👍🏻 I would have to agree.

Dooooooo!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

How the hell did we win this game?

I had a 2, 5 and 8 year old in attendance until the end. The baseball Gods rewarded us. Time to trade everyone.

You might only get prospects back for the 2 year old. Also might make the wife unhappy.

[aBaltoNat]

She's well trained.

[English Natsie]

A win against the defending champs? We'll take that every day...

[OfftheBat]

Caught some of the game last night, had to go to bed early because of work stuff. Impressive win, and impressive magic by Williams with bases loaded nobody out
