Nationals @ Phillies, Game 2

[Terpfan76]

Detwiler going yard!!!

[mimontero88]

offense going down in a whimper vs Lee. He should go 9 innings easily.

Det is at 41 pitches through 4.  These guys could both go deep.

[mitlen]

A bad call at that. Still, I would be shocked if San Antonio won this game. The refs won't let that happen.

Yeah, they want 7.

[Terpfan76]

Detwiler going yard!!!

or not

[spidernat]

Lee on pace for double digit K's.

[Slateman]

Just so Ross gets that same pitch

[sportsfan882]

That called strike 3 to Detwiler was not even close to a strike.

The Nats suck! We never do anything in middle innings vs pitchers. They coast easily to the finish line.

[mimontero88]

D Wade limping badly.

[spidernat]

Just so Ross gets that same pitch

[GburgNatsFan]

Just so Ross gets that same pitch

he won't.

at the Harper tshirt commercial!

The Nats suck because the umps missed a call against a hitter who needs divine intervention to get a hit off Cliff Lee to begin with?

Wasn't a great call but I've seen worse calls, and James could probably stab a guy and not get called for a foul most nights, so I'm not too bothered.

Definitely agree it's going to game 7, you knew that as soon as Joey Crawford stepped on the floor in his ref outfit.

Has Lombo gotten slower this year?

I noticed something.  If you saw that eye video that the Post had with the Nationals this spring, one of the parts had Lombardozzi and Corey Brown working with the team ophthalmologist.  I noticed that he look a lot bigger than he did last year, especially his upper body.  I thought that would affect his performance negatively.

3 baserunners in 5 innings. Not good enough.

Well he's slower and he hasn't gotten any stronger.

He hit a couple of warning track shots the first week or two of the season but nothing close since and his speed has looked way down yes.

Game.

[spidernat]

homer on the way

[Terpfan76]

crap... Although I'm not upset too see a philthie get hbp.

[Terpfan76]

Zimmy looking smooooooth.

[spidernat]

@ that call

[Terpfan76]

Damn... Gave him one on the curve.

[Slateman]

That was a pretty curve and a generous call

[mmzznnxx]

Not a strike but still love the curve on that. Wish he could hit that more consistently.
