Replay on MASN tomorrow at 12:30 if you want to piss away some more time.  Frickin' Solis.  I'd rather eat an egg salad sandwich from a gas station than see him pitch in a Nats uniform again.

Final straw for me with Davey tonight, the guy simply can't hack it as a manager. Players don't respect him and it shows on the field with the worst display of fundamentals in the team's history this season.

Is there even one person other than Martinez that thought it was a good idea to bring Solis in the 9th. Even worse was to leave him in once the bases were loaded.

I turned it off at 4-0. What the freak is wrong with Solis? Absolutely awful this year.

That is the truly annoying thing about replay. All the calls for over running the bag. No baseball experts saw that coming as the biggest impact on the game.

Turner gets called out for overrunning a lot...
Robles did it several times last year also

With or without ethanol ?

Some of the car mechanics down here are suggesting drivers stay away from ethanol, for it eats away at the engine seals.

There's a to-do about high ethanol content for motorcycles engines as well (same concept).     In addition, problem for some is the same pump nozzle distributes various kinds (octane level) of refined gasoline.    There's sometime a significant portion of what was pumped before you arrived left in the system before you get the gas for the bike   ....    You're not only gettin' 15% ethanol, you're gettin' regular instead on hi-test.    :)

Not sure about motorcycles but what’s the downside for cars. Engines seem to last a lot longer in most cars now with fewer problems as compared to years ago.

Solis doesn't crap the mound last night and the fans are treated to a walkoff :w:  :twisted:

You know better than that. When the pitching comes through, the hitting does not.

Just abysmal pitching...how many more grand slams are we going to give up? That scary Cubs line-up coming here this weekend is going to hit at least a couple.

I was thinking the exact same thing after Williams gave up those three homers last night. I'm still frustrated we were just one away from the lead, and the pitching completely craps the bed.
