[Slateman]

Kieboom is now batting cleanup for the Nationals

Kieboom is now batting cleanup for the Nationals

Currently the highest OPS among active Nats. SSS for the win.

[welch]

I was watching Harrisburg against the Mets AA team. Wood struck out on a curve ball that finished about his shoe-tops. Enough predicting that Wood will start in CF on opening day or in July or next August. He is strong but he cannot hit anything that breaks.

Night Train Lane Thomas has the night off. Reported that his back felt tight during yesterday's game. The Nats need a second OF who can hit.

[Slateman]

Time to make Adon a reliever.

Funny thing is, after all the talk of the prospects in Double A being the next great hope, he's doing the best of them

Thomas is available to pinch hit per Davey.

Lipscomb seems able to hit. He's playing shortstop tonight, by the way.

There might be more people in Binghamton tonight

Currently the highest OPS among active Nats. SSS for the win.

The pinnacle of Kiebust

Ah yes, the next Darren Baker

[Slateman]

Has Adon been ahead of anyone?

[welch]

Wood struck out again, again on a pitch that broke down to his ankles. He did get a foul ball on a pitch that didn't break as deep.

[Slateman]

Jesus Christ, Alex Call is our number 6 hitter tonight?

Just turned on in time to see House line out to CF. Guess I will stick around until top of the order bats again.

I think the big difference in Double S is guys able to use their breaking pitches.  At least compared to A ball.

[JCA-CrystalCity]

No Every Day, Every Play. Gata is so happy he can't bring himself to post.

[JCA-CrystalCity]

Kieboom chipping in.

[Natsinpwc]

Who knew that Binghamton was known as the Parlor City?

Wood struck out again on another low breaking ball.  At least he is consistent.

[JCA-CrystalCity]

and that's it. All that Jazz

This is the first start in AA for the Suarez, the Binghamton pitcher. He looks good.

[JCA-CrystalCity]

Young can really run the bases.

[welch]

Alu and Young...

[Natsinpwc]

Well House triples to right center to end the no hitter.
