QFT. He was really bad. Line drives all over the park. Couldn't punch batters out when he had them down in the count. He was fortunate not to give up many more runs.

He set a bad tone from the beginning.

You must've been watching a different game.

just 5 of their balls in play and ONE of their hits were a line drive. But whatever.

The benches cleared in the Cardinals-Dodgers game. You couldn't get that kind of care from the Nationals if you threw a smoke bomb in the dugout.

Is this really how it's going to be?
Can't come up with the big hit when it matters?
Can't come up with the big pitch when it matters?
Years and years of playoff futility?
Really ?

\The Nats are so much better than any other team in the league - did we really just lose a game to horrible jake freaking peavy and the horrible giants? a team we have FUnnING OWNED for years ?

i need hope
somebody give it to me

Not everyone died.

That's a lot for 5+ innings for a "strikeout" pitcher

You'd think this was still the Expos with how Canadian this board's being.

And I'd have to watch them again, but in real time two of those hits didn't look like "weak seeing-eye singles" near "lacksadaisical infielders". To me it looked like they had so far to go they would have been amazing plays to turn.

Well, the fact that so many hits got through, the defensive positioning was bad and our infielders were lifeless.

Yes it is. Line drives are hits what, 66% of the time? Combine that with a crap strikeout rate, a 4 pitch walk, a hit batter and you have an abysmal pitching performance.

Agreed, all those runs he allowed. Wait.

Who gives a crap. We're lucky the NL manager of the year had a quick hook and several scalded balls were right at guys.

The NL Manager of the year wouldn't have used Stammen and he would have been more lively...or alive at his post game presser.

Did he only allow 2 runs or did he not? I believe that is the central objective of the game.

Fixed. And honestly, I'd probably be more comfortable with Fister or ZNN pinch-hitting against a RHP.

Hey! The Expos lost with no payroll and we were thankful to watch it happen!

He is for what he did in the regular season. I wish he could go Bucky Harris and show these wimps how it's done in the postseason.
