Dougherty said the tarp was still on field 30 minutes ago and it was raining

I'm a bit surprised to see Nats favored in this one.  Vegas must have gotten word that dave went full-on Bob Knight in the clubhouse after the early game.

The Brewers are not exactly world beaters.

No they aren't.  Just thought it'd be closer to even money.

Dave Jageler mentions that Lester has good career numbers against the Brewers, include 6 shutout innings last September.

.645 ops for Castro? Hitting 5th? You wonder why we aren't scoring. Both Harrison and Gomes should move up.

I find it interesting that we are hitting for average but not power, even after adding two 30+ homer guys

Great peg, but also terrible running by Cain.

I admit it: I'm following the game with Charlie and Dave. Anything but Fox.

Note: My Daughter-in-Law took the photos at Kolton Wong's wedding. He then played 2b for the Cardinals. She was a superb wedding photographer, having been a photo-journalist in the Army (MOS was 56-Q, as best I remember). She said he was a heck of a nice guy, and so was bride. All that photography went away with more and more digital stuff.

I've also heard from people in Memphis who knew him when he was in AAA that he was a very nice guy.
