Nationals @ Phillies, Game 1

[Panther Modern]

If the Nats win 3/4 of the remaining games and Braves & Phillies go .500, the Nats pick up 7.5 games

BELIEVE.

[NatNasty]

Back to .500 so let me check my abacus...  Yeah we're due for 2 losses next.

Cook a steak.  I ate my remaining steak fajitas from yesterday for supper tonight.

How bout my boy Eaton with the play of the game? Throwing out Ramos at 3rd. That was huge. Took a load off Strasburg.

Nice night for the bullpen

Oh, he's "my boy" now? What happened to this:

Eaton and Murphy are damaged goods.

A bullet? He couldn’t throw Franco out from shallow RF. Twice. And that .289 is weak contact. Nothing with authority.
