dave  thinks they really want him to give a speech.

He's such a riveting speaker, why not? 

I can't even say that with a straight face.

[hohoho]

Hope it's the cheap stuff.

At least he didn't say "We have miles to go and promises to keep."

Is Martinez capable of delivering a speech?

Good times at the park tonight. Any one who doesn’t think what this team did is not a big deal can eat crap.

we're a bit spoiled with how many times this team has gone to the playoffs in the last 7 years, but enjoy it while you can.

I love what Scherzer just said when asked why they never lost faith "because we're good!"

THE RACING PRECEDENTS: Comparative dates on which the Nationals notched their 88th win, each season:

2017 - 10th September (143rd match of season)
2012 - 11th September (142nd match)
2016 - 16th September (147th match)
2014 - 18th September (152nd match)
2019 - 24th September (156th match)
---
2013 - finished 86-76
2015 - finished 83-79
2005 - finished 81-81
2011 - finished 80-81
2007 - finished 73-89
2006 - finished 71-91
2010 - finished 69-93
2008 - finished 59-102
2009 - finished 59-103

...and now, with 2013  having dropped off yesterday, the 2019 edition now keeps company only with the four earlier playoff teams. Not bad for a team that was once 19-31.
