Nationals @ Rays, Game 2

[Baseball is Life]

Whatever...I think we're making more of this than we should...we have bigger issues...getting into a fake baseball fight on the field isn't gonna cure those...

Not a fake fight. A real fight.

This team's lack of emotion sometimes pisses me off.

[mitlen]

I think it says something about this team that Murphy and Eaton were the only ones who seemed to have an issue with this.

I noticed that along with Martinez and Henley  ...

[varoadking]

Tom Wilson would have handled it.   

Got that right...and I'm totally for it on the ice!

Romo speaks perfect English. He was born in California. And, really, it doesn't matter if he was. He was shouting at MAT. You don't walk away from that if you have any balls whatsoever.

Well this maybe a first but I agree with you. Should have gotten in his face. Might ignite the team a little since the camels didn't.

Very true.

Bad angry and fighting over the 7 shut outs, the number of men left on, the fact we get RISP with no outs and can't get them in.

Romo wasn't gonna fight anyway. If he was gonna do anything he wouldn't have quieted down when Murph was in his face.

Relief pitchers doing this is always so nag. Not ever gonna see an AB they have to stand in there for and wear one.

Don't think for a minute the NL East ain't takin' note.

Indeed.

I'll have to look at it when I get home. I am typically one to think that in real life you need to step up for yourself. On the baseball diamond when nothing is actually on the line? Not so much. But I think fighting is dumb.

Pretty apparent the DJ didn't help either...

The entire NL if not all of MLB is taking note.

Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeriste I hope the Nats took notice.

Baseball is life, after all.

Didn't they pitch and putt one day?

[varoadking]

Didn't they pitch and putt one day?

LOL...I must have missed that...

[bluestreak]

I don't like MAT any more no heart, no balls. DFA him. I mean he probably should have gotten in a fight because a suspension would have alleviated the outfield logjam.

I hate all that contrived bullcrap. I hate it in the business world and I hate it even more in sports.

Was it Henley or the bench coach?

huge problem

this is why this type of crap is perpetuated. Romo basically got away with it and made the Nationals look weak as freak which means he'll feel comfortable doing it again until someone gives him a reason to pause before trying it.

Watch it.    Put your feet up on the coffee table.    WWBSHD?

It's not about getting in a fight. It's about not letting someone talk to you like that and you walk away without standing up for yourself and your team. It just encourages other teams to do the same.

[mitlen]

Was it Henley or the bench coach?

I thought it was Henley.    Could have been Hale.   I thought I saw sun screen.

[bluestreak]

BSH?

[mitlen]

BSH?

bluestreak have done  ....   think about somebody talkin' to you like that.

Ray is pissed that Eaton and Taylor were seen laughing in the dugout after Eaton's base running blunder. I wonder how he fells about Rendon's crap eating grin?

This team just doesn't have balls.

Well, Tim Hudson said it HOW MANY YEARS ago?? He hasn't been proven wrong yet.

[mitlen]

Forgot all about that.   

[skippy1999]

Wait the game is over??? Why the heck did they play such an early game on a freaking Tuesday???
