The Nats bullpen has been great lately.
Nats Bullpen:
Last 23 innings pitched, only 3 earned runs given up (1.17 ERA)

The Nationals need a 4th triple to tie the NL record for Most Triples in a Single Game, which has stood since 1897! The AL record is only 3, so no one ever had that many in this city. I guess it's too late now...

F-Rod is in. Is it bad that I expect to lose when he pitches?

That was one guy that had 4 triples in a game. Is that the team record also?

Hopefully with a 4 run cushion and only 3 outs to get. Even F-ROD can handle this.

Good catch - that was individual records. We are not even close:
Most In A Game By One Team is 9 (nine). The AL record is only 6.
NL Bal (vs Cle) 9, 09-03-1894
I remember reading about Baltimore baseball history, but I don't remember what became of the Baltimore team that was playing in 1894.

Hmmm, F-Rod gives up a run and Frank says - maybe not.
Chief coming in.

Milwaukee 5

Washington 8

On the subject of triples, they used to have huge ballparks back in the day, and very few home runs. Triples were far more common than they are now.

A better question would be, when was the last time a team had 3 triples in a game? Might have been a couple of years past, just a guess.

Senators2005 · « **Reply #115 on:** September 16, 2006, 10:12:42 pm »

Brewers get the tieing run to the plate.
alright. I'm not worrying.
