Nationals vs Yankees, Game 1 (2020)

[Bookman]

They should both wear Motorcycle helmets or we might see a dead man

Mike Tyson always conflicts me.
He's a terrible human, but I've found him to be a very likeable personality the last few years.
This fight seems like a terrible idea, but I'm kind of excited to watch.

Mental illness can be fascinating.

Speaking of boxing can Davey just throw in the towel? 

[NatNasty]

Hannibal facemask?

Roy Jones is a scumbag, I want to see Tyson beat him senseless

I think they might both already be senseless.

So I’m not paying attention what do they do if the rain doesn’t stop?

Yanks win.

I remember watching that live.
There is a lot fascinating about that interview.  A lot of crazy, but man, where did he pick up that vocabulary? 
I have to feel for a tough guy with lisp trying to say he's ruthless!

Just resume Saturday.  Never been easier logistically.  Who cares what the rules say this year.

Why not tomorrow morning?  What else are they doing?  No fans to worry about.

[RyanZimsKazoo]

Man this has been the most intense storm we had all summer

They can stay all night. Until the morning if necessary. 

[nfotiu]

Radar looks like it is clearing up.  Any word if the game will resume?

[aBaltoNat]

Is there any way to set a phone alert for when a game comes out of rain delay?   It seems like something that should exist.

They'll have to do this in the new age of sports. People aren't going to be consumed by them and just sitting around waiting any longer.

Looks like all the fans have gone home.

Does anyone know if they ran out of hot dogs tonight?

if you have the MLB app I believe you can set preferences to get those kinds of alerts.  I'm pretty sure other apps like ESPN and Bleacher Report offer the same capabilities once you set your favorite team(s)

You'll all be happy to know Mary Hart is once again behind home plate at the Dodgers game, though she's not nearly as animated as I've seen her in previous games.

[bluestreak]

Game over. Nats lose.

Carrot Top is there also.  On the mound.

So 2020 opens with the most perfect 2020 game possible.

I had prepared myself for Rendon's departure, but losing Soto the day of the opener was a 1-2 gut punch. My mentality this season is that the World Series title bought about a decade of goodwill, and any follow-up this season is gravy. But this lineup hearkened back to the 2005-2012 era. With Soto out, and Kieboom struggling with the elusive yet necessary skill of hitting a baseball, this season's path is to hold the line until Soto's return, and take advantage of the expanded playoff field to make another run. We may go on a tear starting tomorrow, but one thing is clear after just tonight: we must get Kieboom into the lineup *every day* so he can get his reps. Cabrera is a more-than-capable super-sub, but protecting Kieboom with a platoon will only perpetuate his weakness against RHP.

So glad the last Washington National game I will ever watch was the championship clinching 2019 game for the world championship I'd thought I would never see.  I have packed away all my Nats memorabilia and the UNamerican  Washington Kneelers can do whatever the heck they want. They have now gone the way of the NFL and NBA to never be seen or watched in my home  again   Ciao   (BTW I don't care what DC liberals think of this post or if you even let it stay)  buh bye
