see that pisses me off. Dunn takes a meat fastball right down the middle 2-1 count and then gets fooled on a curve.

if he swung the freaking bat he would be a much better hitter.

Baseball is not as easy as it "looks" on TV sportsfan.

If Dunn swung the bat more instead of taking BP fastballs down the middle for strikes he would hit more homers and hit for a higher average. he's capable of doing much more but he refuses to change his ways.

Of great they're doing the wave at the stadium.

We needed that break.

We have to capitalize on that mistake and plate both runs.

Yes it is and anyone who can't carry a .500 average or below 1.00 ERA is garbage.

This game is like the Nats vs the Nats.

He's got a point. It does seem like that sometimes Dunn is looking for the walk because he takes so many good pitches.

I don't disagree. I was just pointing out that sportsfan favorite sport behind football and baseball is ripping Dunn when he is struggling and remaining quiet when he does anything positive and the direct opposite when it comes to one of his boys.

Just got live again... Boy Ross looked bad tonight... Now we must rely on the bullpen and late game hitting to win............
Also, I heard Guzman has a son that plays in McLean little league... I am guessing that means he lives in McLean. Does anyone know that for sure?

spidernat · « **Reply #218 on:** July 03, 2009, 08:36:15 pm »

Our freaking defense does not communicate well if at all.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #219 on:** July 03, 2009, 08:36:21 pm »

NOT good enough. Where the freak is the communication? jesus

good job by Clippard tonight. 2 IP 1 H 0 R 0 ER 0 BB 2 K. He kept us in it.

Don't overlook the fact that he allowed an inherited runner to score.

You guys remember how in '05 we went months without having a lefty in the bullpen and now half our bullpen is lefthanded.
