Nationals @ Cubs, Game 1

[mitlen]

So the Zimmerman gaff costs us this game...

I only caught the end of that play the first time.   I missed the Zim throw.   When I was a kid there was a guy we used to call "jelly arm".    That's Zim.

Uncle Ray channeling Alan May.

Happy is winning the next 2 out of 3

spoiled another nice performance by Ross tonight.  If we win 1 against the Cubs i'm happy.

Going back to the 8th, 1st & 2nd no outs. I have seen enough of Pedro Strop to know he can be tough to hit OR he can implode because of his control. I'm pretty sure it was Strop who wild pitched in the winning run against the Nats in a game a few years back.

These guys surely have more than enough video and scouting reports on Strop. The Taylor & Rendon at bats could not have been a bigger joke. Do these guys just have the green light ALL the time. Is there no take sign?

Or maybe it was Carlos Marmol a few years back?

HBP again

does Danny remind anyone of Coach from Cheers?

[JCA-CrystalCity]

He's going to break Ernie pantusso's record!

the answer to my question right away.

[mitlen]

The Werth misplay was pretty bad...

Ray saying he didn't recall Werth ever misplaying a ball was worse...

Uncle Ray's been out (sick) recently.    He's probably missed a few games.

With Taylor struggling to me it was a major mistake to not have him
bunting.
