Nationals @ Twins, Game 3

[sixthree175]

Gomes is like having 2 pitchers in the batting lineup.

He's a good defensive catcher.  But, that won't be enough.

  Now we can get down to winning

Get some

Why is Eaton bunting when it's only the 3rd inning ?

Looked like a single to right from where I'm sitting.

[mitlen]

Skeeered of Ant'ny.

[NatNasty]

Replay fails again.

[sixthree175]

wasted challenge as usual. they have someone making minimum wage in the dugout making these important decisions.

He was off the bag.  Replay failed.

[sixthree175]

AssCab picks up Howie.

[Air Desmond]

What a pickup Cabrera has been

[sixthree175]

We can't take much more of this crap from Adams.  Where'e Adam Lind when you need him?

[sixthree175]

I wonder if Stevenson can play first base?

[NatNasty]

Well, if you're going to give up a dong you might as well give up a DONG.  That ball was crushed!

And the solo-er the better

[Capsman]

He has no business being out there except, I guess, to spell Zim.

There are THREE automatic outs in this lineup.

[sixthree175]

No, FP, they're not going to allow Gibson to pitch third time through the order.

[varoadking]

Seems odd for FP to be stumpin' an ad for Miller Lite with the Budweiser connection the Nats have...

[nfotiu]

Why not Zimmerman there.  Forced preemptive day off?

Davey wants to give Zim a night off.  Zim is OLD.

[nfotiu]

No, FP, they're not going to allow Gibson to pitch third time through the order.

Isn’t that already happening?

[nfotiu]

Davey wants to give Zim a night off.  Zim is OLD.

I’m good with that.  Just wanted to make sure I didn’t miss  a new injury.

[sixthree175]

Isn’t that already happening?

I'm surprised he's still pitching.  Today the Brewers took Gio out after 4 innings (two runs allowed) and they ended up winning the game.

 

[NatNasty]

Boom!
