Nationals @ Pirates, Game 1

[DCFan]

Not sure.    I know they took a beating.

Speaking of which, I might have to have another Bud as I gear up for my beating tomorrow at social security. I was supposed to be off Wednesday this week but switched it as I didn’t want to deal with their half day schedule. I’m thinking of telling them to put it on VaRK’s account.

Bob...PLEASE...don't ask FP about his career...

Adams on fyyyar.

Zimm will be back soon.  He's our first baseman...

[Ali the Baseball Cat]

That's excellent.  I'm surprised this game is on though

Hee hee - we’re in Mexico on vacation. Just got back from the beach and turned on the TV, only to find that our game is on. So I’m sitting here watching the game in Spanish, slightly sunburnt, cerveza in hand. Life is good.

Hard liquor is the only cure.

Raise for everyone on WNFF!

The only legal one

gotta score all we can now because Zim GIDP will kill most rallies out of that 4 or 5 spot.

The only legal one

I can't imagine bein' high and dealin' with SS.

[Natsinpwc]

But only five percent of our home runs come after the 8th. 

[NatsAllThe Way]

Gomes might be the worst hitter I’ve ever seen.

[DCFan]

I can't imagine bein' high and dealin' with SS.

I’ll let you know tomorrow afternoon.

[mitlen]

I’ll let you know tomorrow afternoon.

Don't forget some chips and dip.   

BTW  They'll set up appointments but it may take a while to get in.

[GataNats]

Gomes should not be in the big leagues.

Try a Michelada if you haven’t had one before.

What changed in Pittsburgh? I see a lot of attractive women in the stands.

It's changed.     Lots of high tech/medical stuff goin' on.    If you get out to the surrounding counties, you'll see what you remember ...  big people.

And I thought there was a game tonite

[wj73]

We were surprised too. It’s on Spanish language ESPN2. We caught parts of Dodgers-Braves yesterday on Spanish language FoxSports.


Not to get political, but the best t-shirt for sale from a beach vendor today said, “Relax. You’re on the happy side of the wall.”  Got a good chuckle out of that one.

Not the crap out of a can. An actual one made by a bartender, in Mexico. They are popular with the locals. Another drink to try down there is a Paloma which is blanco tequila, grapefruit soda, and lime juice.  In my visits those are the two drinks the locals recommended.  Mexicans don’t drink margaritas.
