That throw almost made Smithian go soft mid-jerk.

[NatsAllThe Way]

the most boring team in baseball.

OK, I'm convinced. Ryan Z can't throw. Put him at 1B now or let him set, but that was painful to watch. (I have the Milwaukee announcers, who have been talking with Robin Yount. All said "ouch" at the same time.)

[spidernat]

crap, Nats suck
No mods in the vicinity
time to play 

[NatsAllThe Way]

It's demoralizing to lose another series.  But that is what is happening.

He doesn't have the bat to play first.  Well neither does anyone else who plays for this crappy team.  What a freakin' debacle.

He's getting rocked.

Keeriste, I think Rizzo bought a new shirt.

Keeriste, I think Rizzo bought a new shirt.

Celebrating his new contract. He must have actually gone to a men's clothing store this time, because that one's a lot better than the pink ones he usually wears.

Figaro Figaro Fiiigaroooo.... we're getting PWNED by a sucky ass pitcher.  DRINK!

He might be done with this franchise.

Jose Fernandez 8 IP 14 K vs a hot Indians team.

[welch]

Every Nats hitter looks sluggish. They swing like guys in an old-timer's game.

[sportsfan882]

Storen strikes out the last two batters of the inning to preserve a tie game but it's still a blown save.

1 IP 2 H 2 R 1 ER 0 BB 2 K.

[sportsfan882]

wow slick DP by Rendon/Desi

[mitlen]

That was nice.

[NatsAllThe Way]

The Cards scored more runs in the last 2 games than we have all of July.

Going through the motions at this point. 

Depressing.

I can see Harper's little rant didn't apply to his own play.
