Don't worry folks, WNFF's data is in safe hands

Completely unhackable!

How'd you get a picture of my PC?

TBS pre-game panel calling out Werth and asking why Kendrick isn't in the line-up

[slhubic]

and if you are going to start Werth put him at 8 or 9  moving Rendon and Murphy down in the lineup  is not good

quite sad to see, but sadly not unexpected--dusty being dusty.  but, seriously, it's one thing to leave 'werth' in the lineup at all, but to leave the exact same batting order, and to not move him down is almost beyond inane.

simply, I want nothing more than to be wrong about this, maybe 'werth' will FINALLY show up, and do something...but...

[slhubic]

I am shocked  that Zobrist is not starting.

thank-you.  he always seems to do something, to come through against us...

G&D mentioned they watched him pop up two shallow balls to SS during batting practice.  Didn’t seem to have a rhythm.

[mitlen]

Kolko and FP and in the Loft.    I expect a VaRK appearance.

[mitlen]

Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eriste I just heard (for the first time) that the Yankees won.

Anyone else scarfing down some smoked baby bear in preparation for this game? It's high in protein and lush with revenge.

closest I could get to earing the enemy was pot roast. 

[RiotAct]

according to WJFK, summer is here, and I should purchase some Captain Morgan Loco-Nut to celebrate.

[NatNasty]

Captain Mogan awaits after that.   

Need to dig out that Murohy blue t-shrt I have worn the last two days--that rain out threw a wrench into the laundry plan.

Glad to see I'm not the only one boozing it up tonight!

[MorseTheHorse]

MORSE!!!!!!!!!  Can he pinch hit later??

Aye ...   the Cap'n is in the house.    Mate mitlen reporting for duty.

[slhubic]

yeah, and besides the obvious hope, I feel like trea--especially as he kind of got the monkey off his back--could have a big game...

Please tell me that Ray Knight discussed his batting strategy against Hendricks with the Nationals players, and did not just save it for the pre-game show on MASN.

Same thing he said after the previous Hendricks start:
1. Stop swinging at pitches below the strike zone.
2. Move closer to the plate, since he pitches outside and only throws 87 mph.
3. Step up in the batter's box closer to the pitcher. The sinkers will be higher when you can swing at them, and more hittable.

That was pretty good TV.

Fun, TBS is showing the history of DC sports teams in the playoffs.

Dusty rightfully being called out for this Werth debacle.

[BridgeportCityWorker]

I always worry about Contreras and Baez against lefties.  Gonzalez has to control those two.

[mitlen]

Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eriste in that last shot, I was talkin' to the guy on the left at the season final.

[Leroy Veritas]

A little post dinner popcorn and a DC Brau, just like yesterday. Here's hoping the manager's stupid lineup doesn't cost us.

My grandkids are going to get here pretty much the moment this game starts, sometimes being grandma sucks

[natsarl]

Nats Park sounds LOUD.

Turn out the lights and pretend you're not home.

But the TBS panel all picked Washington to win Game 5.
