Gio Gonzalez, Davey Johnson and Drew Storen should never be forgiven for game 5.

The worst to me was Davey using Edwin Jackson in relief. You know the guy who averaged almost one run in the first innings of all the appearances on the season. You knew he wasn't going to hang a 0.

Storen was more of a surprise although it's almost as heinous to me.

Ancient history, but so true (and I never will!)

I say that because that may have been our legitimate shot.

Last we'll see under current management, I'm afraid.

I'm also tired of watching Zimmerman hop around the batter's box on strikes (swing or call).

Lowered expectations should make 2014 more enjoyable...

My best impression of the SSS...

The real winner of tonight's game was the Nats fan who shut down the Metro, who's likely still too drunk to appreciate how bad tonight really was.

Could have stopped right there, really.

Only stranded two runners ... only have 4 freaking hits Bob and one of those was a HR.

Four hits. The Braves had four hits with their first seven batters of the game. Nats are lucky they hung in there this long.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #391 on:** August 07, 2013, 09:56:46 pm »

Zimmerman overmatched.

The Braves claim some AAAA scrub and all of a sudden he is a lights out setup man for them that throws 97 MPH.

Face of the Franchise...pretty apt.

Stepping on our neck.

No, the Braves has backing up over a roadkill.

Welp, it's official now. We suck.

Equally official is the tombstone over the already dug grave of 2013. I expected the Braves to own us in our remaining series, but not this badly. Last weekend I would have thought a sweep at home, despite how blazingly hot the Braves' recent run has been, would have been out of the question.

The 2013 Nationals - Defying all expectations.

One walk too, not stranded however.

This reminds me of the days where the Marlins would always have the Nats' number and defeat them in embarrassing fashion numerous times.

0-6 at home vs the Braves this season, just one year removed from winning the division. This season just defies logic.

Go watch McHales Navy or something

At this point I'm only watching so I can wear these games a badge of honor when we win the World Series in 2045.

Yeah...but we've got a lot of our regulars on the DL and that's killing us.

Wait...
