Just win, Nats. Just win. Fun to see a line of Culy-W's!!!

(Although Rendon is allowed to touch second on that previous play and then fire the ball a BIT low to 1B. "You go after my knees and I fire the ball through your nose". Or, as Buddy Myer explained, "If Chapman tries to spike me again, I'll step on his face". And did.)

Neat win.

I already got it.    It's time we fight the power.

Nah, I sprinted down to flip the chicken on the grill and before I could do that Mitlen got it. Too quick for me.

Nice to see the stadium almost filled. Just win the next game, Nats.

^This. Each and every game. Well at least say 90% of the remaining ones.

Yep

Tangueray.   

Not even close to worth the money (Va ABC stores suck) but I didn't buy it for me.   We ran out a couple of weeks ago, and that's her go-to summer drink.   I kept forgetting to stop off in Md on my way home from work, so when I asked about errands she needed me to run today, she said "gin".   So I'm spending my way out of trouble.  Seagrams would have worked for me.   

If you're in the hood, the Costco in DC (across from NY Ave over by the Times building) has liquor at prices you'd expect from Costco.

PC, you start tomorrows thread.  we may start a nice little streak here

Nats keeping it semi-interesting at least.  That magic number for the Mets ( 8 ) is scary, though.

Following Marty Niland, I think, the Nats need to gain four games before that final showdown at CitiField.
