Re-signing Finnegan has made a big difference already this year.

Nice to win a game we didn't deserve. How many years?

You can't give Luis Garcia Jr a pitch he can drive, or it will end up right in front of the warning track. Which is as far as it needed to go in that situation.

IIRC he was going to be our closer before we resigned Finnegan

With the :w: posted, we honor the memory of our friend Old Chelsea with the traditional post that tracks the Nats wins to date, in Anglophile style.

THE RACING PRECEDENTS - Comparative dates on which the Nationals notched their 11th win, each season:

2016 - 20th April (14th match of season)
2012 - 20th April (15th match)
2014 - 20th April (19th match)
2017 - 21st April (16th match)
2019 - 23rd April (22nd match)
2025 - 23rd April (24th match)
2013 - 25th April (22nd match)
2018 - 25th April (25th match)
2005 - 26th April (21st match)
2024 - 26th April (25th match)
2010 - 27th April (21st match)
2011 - 28th April (24th match)
2008 - 30th April (28th match)
2021 - 1st May (23rd match)
2015 - 2nd May (25th match)
2023 - 2nd May (29th match)
2006 - 7th May (32nd match)
2009 - 9th May (29th match)
2022 - 11th May (32th match)
2007 - 12th May (36th match)
2020 - 23rd August (25th match)

This team goes to 11.

2025 slips ahead of the 3 seasons started 11-14: 2015, 2018, and 2020. Ties 2011's pace. 1 game behind 2021.

I could not make it for Shakespeare Day. A relative, age 40, died suddenly last week. We don't know why. His memorial service was late yesterday afternoon. Traffic was horrific.

sorry for your loss. Way too young.

I hope you were able to listen to some of this game and/or the Caps on the way back. The magic of the Bard was with DC sportsfans yesterday.
