I swear line out double plays happen disproportionately in end game situations.

Great swing by Wieters, bad luck.

shut the freak up FP, it's not like the 3B dove and made a great play on what would've been a double in the corner

Zimmerman’s run meant nothing. Why was he so far off base?

Didn’t matter. On any lead he was toast.

As hard as that ball was hit I dont know if he was 2 steps closer it would have mattered.

True.   But he does have to be in position to get to third on a ground ball or stay ahead of Taylor on a double.   A tiny bit of blame for being a little too far off I guess.

Hard to win both games of a double header.

We will get them tomorrow

Big loss. Lost a Scherzer start (have to win 95% of these from here out), lost any momentum, now have to win the next 2 to have a shot. Closer to 10 games out that 1st.

If Herrera is injured, Nats would be down 4 solid/elite relievers from the pen of a few weeks ago including the trades of Kintzler and Kelley.

Barves need a new broadcast team. This Joe Simpson is a freaking moron. First drew the ire of the Dodgers last month and now questioning the age of Soto. Not our fault that he's better than Acuna.

We don't really have room to talk, I can honestly say our guys rank in the bottom 5 of all broadcasters...

Bob and F.P. are light years better than Harry Caray's grandkid and a bitter, angry Joe Simpson.
