This is going to be it.
Hi!
We should lock this thread for the year. See you in 2019.
Seems we either score a ton of runs, or get shut out.22 games in June:9 games scoring 5 runs or more7 games shut out
6 during this 5-11 stretch. It seems it fell apart at about the same time as Murphy and Eaton came back and Adams got hurt. I guess there's a loss of feng shui in the clubhouse. I suggest moving the ficus.
What happened today in the ninth is exactly what happened the home opener except this time it was Severino weakly popping out to right instead of Zimmerman when the bases were loaded.We need a catcher who can handle a bat.......we need anyone who can handle a bat
Rendon eventually struck out against reliever Chaz Roe, and Harper remained at first base. Harper is coming back to life lately, with six doubles in his past five games, and he missed a game-tying home run by inches in the sixth. But that he could not steal second meant the Nationals did not score when Soto and Murphy singled against Alvarado. They left the bases loaded when the Rays’ Sergio Romo got Trea Turner to fly out before striking out Michael A. Taylor on three pitches to end it.
Not even close.
This bag of crap climaxed in the 3rd inning when Gio lead off with a double and then Eaton had his selfish, BS at bat. Gio never moved, stood out there all inning, then surrendered the HR to Marte. Ball game. F U
Why was it selfish?
Hit a freaking ground ball to the right side, move Gio to 3rd, and then Soto brings him in with a sac fly. When is the last time Eaton hit a HR, or even drove a ball with authority to a gap? Instead he tries to mash and hits a lazy flyball to left.
