Not a bad second inning by Jake I.

Irvin dealing through two.

They’ve got the Nats hitters on the scoreboard with the NYC skyline in the background. And have a graphic of the Golden Gate Bridge where the SF Bay Bridge is. Rough night for geography

Meneses heating up.

Irvin looking good. Curve is filthy.

How many high "strikes" has this umpire called just above the zone to both pitchers?

He isn’t consistent at all. Pitches way outside are strikes and some in the box are balls.

Really impressed by Irvin so far. Reminds me of JZ.

41 pitches after 3. Looking sharp with a little help from the umpire

I went to that stadium at Christmas 2012 after the Giants had won the World Series the previous October (and eliminated the Nats). The city was nice then. I need to go to a game there even though the city has become a toilet.

Garcia stinks in the field. It would be nice if they could give Irvin some help.

Senatorswin · « **Reply #35 on:** May 08, 2023, 10:43:39 pm »

Umpire gave Peterson that one. Was a strike 3.

welch · « **Reply #36 on:** May 08, 2023, 10:45:04 pm »

Pretty good, Jake Irvin.

Senatorswin · « **Reply #37 on:** May 08, 2023, 10:45:10 pm »

Wow, three double plays so far.

Senatorswin · « **Reply #38 on:** May 08, 2023, 10:46:44 pm »

The first batter gets on because Garcia didn't make a play. The second batter gets on by a questionable umpire call. Irvin gets out of it.

Smooth 1-2-3 inning by Irvin.

Senatorswin · « **Reply #40 on:** May 08, 2023, 10:56:36 pm »

Did that guy actually fake a bunt with two strikes and took the pitch down the middle.

Senatorswin · « **Reply #41 on:** May 08, 2023, 11:11:03 pm »

Irvin in a groove.

Senatorswin · « **Reply #42 on:** May 08, 2023, 11:18:40 pm »

dagnabit. That would of been a huge hit.

Senatorswin · « **Reply #43 on:** May 08, 2023, 11:26:22 pm »

Great performance by Irvin.

Senatorswin · « **Reply #44 on:** May 08, 2023, 11:30:16 pm »

Edwards 2 pitches 2 outs.

I really hate this Giants catcher and his ridiculously overaffected pitch-framing, but I suppose this umpire has been rewarding him for it.

Senatorswin · « **Reply #46 on:** May 08, 2023, 11:34:16 pm »

I'm watching the Giants telecast. They spend a lot of time showing what's going on in the stands. This one family has gotten 3 foul balls.

Senatorswin · « **Reply #47 on:** May 08, 2023, 11:40:16 pm »

Abrams should of been going after the two throw overs.

I get the feeling the Nats will still only have 5 runs when the 9th inning comes.

Yup
