Nationals @ Astros, Game 2

[nfotiu]

It could be like Pedro taking his perfect game into the 10th

[mitlen]

And who else remembers Haddix and "that" game?

Welch ...  could be a mindfact but I swear I listened to that game on my little transistor radio.

[mmzznnxx]

Edwin doesn't deserve to get an earned run for that.

I believe you did. What else would be more important than a ball game? And how else to listen than on a transistor radio?

[nfotiu]

Where is the game on tv?   Is mlb network going to cut back from the red sox game?

[KV]

Still scoreless going into the bottom of the 9th. Hill only at 87 pitches.

Yes. MLB network

ERROR

[KV]

Shame.

[RobDibblesGhost]

Perfect game over thanks to an error

[welch]

Here's the story of the Harvey Haddix game. Jayson Werth's grandfather played SS and went 3-for-6.

Well, so much for the el perfecto.

[nfotiu]

Man, perfect games are hard to get.   Sucks for the the 3rd baseman.

[KV]

Too bad. Not even a difficult play. He just booted it

[mmzznnxx]

That was hard to get. If it wasn't a perfecto before I could see a lenient scorer calling that a hit.

When they were talkin' about Werth's rehab, I was thinking about the Bucco Schofields.

Bob picking up on the Haddix story.

[Slateman]

Does it count as a Maddux if you don't get the win?

[mitlen]

Bob picking up on the Haddix story.

He's readin' WNFF again.

[RobDibblesGhost]

Game

[mmzznnxx]

Does it count as a Maddux if you don't get the win?

Does it count as a quality start if your pitching was quality but didn't go 6 IP <3 runs?

[Natsinpwc]

That was hard to get. If it wasn't a perfecto before I could see a lenient scorer calling that a hit.

Cmon. It bounced right into his body and didn't take a bad bounce. Not an easy play but clearly an error.

[NatsAllThe Way]

That's so game it ain't even funny.

[RobDibblesGhost]

We've scored one damn run in five innings against a pitcher with an ERA of over 7 over the last month

[nfotiu]

Pedro's story needs a bump too, since it was with the franchise

And I did watch that one on tv.  I think we only had the game in french though.
