Nationals @ Marlins, Game 3

[skippy1999]

I love me some Sandy but this is garbage 

[JCA-CrystalCity]

386 foot mid90s exit velocity. cheap.

[NatsAllThe Way]

All jokes aside... slow down here guys, let's not start winning too many games.

Nevermind.  We're losing this.

[Elvir Ovcina]

Call me crazy, but I'm thinking mid-80s fastballs thigh-high and in the middle of the plate aren't the way to go here.

Harper's reply:  "OK, dickhead, let's try a hanging curveball.  That'll show you, you bulbous-skulled freak."

[NatNasty]

Can we actually lose this one?

Not with Rainey to save the day.

[Ali the Baseball Cat]

7th inning stretch followed by the 9th inning rape

[aspenbubba]

Way to go Harp. You might be DFA before the season is over

[Elvir Ovcina]

7th inning stretch followed by the 9th inning rape

Let's maybe do a little better than this?

[NatNasty]

Not with Rainey to save the day.

[Ali the Baseball Cat]

Never a dull moment

[imref]

Nice to see Rainey being aggressive

[JCA-CrystalCity]

It'd be nice if Rainey reverts to last year's form.

[hohoho]

Had em all the way!

[varoadking]

100 loss season averted...but we're losing valuable ground to the Fish...

[welch]

Sadly, not likely to win more than a game or two for the rest of the season.
