Oh, he'll have a great game today. I've got him on my Yahoo Fantasy League and I didn't get back from the gym in time to move him off the bench before the game started

I'm here spidernats just like I said. Great top half of the inning by Gio. Just what they needed to start the game.

Span doubles and the Nats are off boys. Do it for your mommas!

Terrible at bat. You absolutely have to move the runner to third. Hopefully BH will bring him in.

No bunt from Lombo?!!

Squab · « **Reply #11:** May 12, 2013, 01:46:34 PM »

Should have just bunted Lombo. I get it but you're not going to pull a sinker away. Could have just poked it down to third easy. Probably could have drawn a walk too with sinkers away, or at least been patient enough to get a pitch over the plate.

Good to see Bryce back

RobDibblesGhost · « **Reply #13:** May 12, 2013, 01:48:59 PM »

Please don't hit into a double play

RobDibblesGhost · « **Reply #15:** May 12, 2013, 01:50:07 PM »

There we go...walk number four for Desmond this year. Hope Danny makes them pay.

1st Ryan Zimmerman doubled to deep right, Denard Span scored, Bryce Harper to third.

Chicago Cubs 0
Washington Nationals 1

espinosa needs to start hitting or pitchers are not gonna give desmond anything to hit. and with his patience that is not a good outcome

RobDibblesGhost · « **Reply #22:** May 12, 2013, 01:58:38 PM »

Damn. 2 doubles and 2 walks and 1 freaking run. Hope that doesn't come back to bite us.

TigerFan · « **Reply #23:** May 12, 2013, 01:58:56 PM »

Almost automatic RBI hitting .297?? Where do these guys come up with this crap. Good battling inning from the offense though.

He should be hitting eighth. He can occasionally take a walk, has some speed. In this case you had the guy hitting .417 with RISP coming up with the bags juiced.
