Nationals @ Cubs, Game 3

Oh c'mon now - let's not compare anything to the trauma of you playing in Little League

Family should probably not attend.  One of my most traumatic experiences as a little league pitcher was having my grandparents in the stands for the first (and only) time as I crapped the bed.

Carrying only six relievers is probably looking like a bad decision now, huh Rizzo?  All so you could keep your boyfriend Tracy on the roster...

my son wrestled too
and that was the most agony
with him in any sport

Ooh, wrestling. I bet it was tough just because it's just a physical sport. My son played baseball and basketball and I was ecstatic when he gave up football after one year. Too many injuries....

I coached my son in Little League and it was the best father-son experience ever. We still talk about it years later.

But what a blessing
This wrestling did not occur
In a sumo ring

my son wrestled too
and that was the most agony

A Chicago hot dog stand

Of course he strikes out the side now,lol

[Ali the Baseball Cat]

Roark bends but doesn't break.

Tanner strikes out the side.

Maybe he's trying to rig it so that he gets the in front of his fan club

No need for a life vest there

The long reliever comes in at the start of an inning and finishes it, clean.  It's not difficult, Davey.

Roark was a starter in Syracuse.  I'll be that was the first time he's come in in the middle of an inning with a runner on.

I wish that's what it was but Dorf hadn't gone 5 so if that's his plan he needs to learn the scoring rules,lol

[RobDibblesGhost]

LOL, Span has now grounded out to each of the four infielders tonight

[RobDibblesGhost]

I wish that's what it was but Dorf hadn't gone 5 so if that's his plan he needs to learn the scoring rules,lol

If the Nats take the lead this inning and hold it, Roark gets the win.

[Truconfidence]

I wonder if teams will employ a shift against span with 3 infielders in the 3.5 hole with the RF playing shallow soon,lol

What are they on about.  It is a blown save because it is a save opportunity, I think.  Although could he get a save and a win?

I'm sorry to laugh at this but I found it hilarious. 

My nephew hated for me to come to his games for that very reason.

It's nothing, Dorf hadn't gone 5

[Ali the Baseball Cat]

Dude it was brutal.  I still have nightmares LOL

So close...

[spidernat]

Ohlendorf sucks. This is not news to 29 MLB teams

This has been pointed out but around here a player has a decent week and they are penciling them in for the next 10 years and starting "appreciation threads". 

[Truconfidence]

Damn thought Bryce got that one, got too much loft
