Nationals vs Braves, Game 1

[BigMeech]

This freaking offense.

[Slateman]

Healthy Werth hits a home run there .... *sigh*

[madj55]

goddamnit

[Lintyfresh85]

Wow Bob.

You didn't even react... and I thought it was 10 rows deep.

Bravo.

[Tyler Durden]

Damnit.

[KnorrForYourMoney]

freak!

[terpfan417]

What a crappy loss this is going to be. I thought Werth jacked that.

[houston-nat]

Wow Bob.

You didn't even react... and I thought it was 10 rows deep.

Bravo.

Yeah he knew that was caught pretty quickly.

Bravo.

  Meanwhile, Charlie started off with "SWING AND A LONG ONE..."

[madj55]

Man I thought that ball was gone...

[RL04]

Morse is difficult to watch in left field, so he needs to go to first ASAP, but I think we only have him under control through next year.

Yes.   Discussed in another GD thread a few days ago.

Ughhhhhh

[KnorrForYourMoney]

Damn, Charlie got excited on that one

Total tease

[lastobjective]

OK I believe in Burnett

  Meanwhile, Charlie started off with "SWING AND A LONG ONE..."

As much as I love Charlie, he is guilty of that sometimes.

[TODD]

werth looks great up there, needs to be tracy instead of moore next time. bad ABs recently

[BigMeech]

We need Burnett to hold them scoreless here.  Have Harper, Zimm, and Morse coming up against probably Durbin.

[KnorrForYourMoney]

The crowd had the wind taken out of its sails with that result in the bottom of the 8th.

[GMUTrkstar]

Why would Tracy hit against a LHP?

Because he has way more experience than Moore in these situations. But i didn't know Tracy was awful against LH

[RL04]

Healthy Werth hits a home run there ....

I've been saying since he's been back that Werth is hitting weakly.

But everyone here has been ga-ga over his batting average and walks.

Singles and walks are fine.   But he is not a power hitter at all.  At least not now.   I don't know what he was in Philly or LA.

Nah.

It was a LHP. It was the right move.

[Clever]

I think this team is required to have a biweekly knucklehead game. The last one was against the Astros.

He hasn't been a power hitter since he left the cozy confines of Philly.

[CALSGR8]

Would that pitch have been a ball?
