Abrams scratched due to bad back. Nunez inserted and lineup shuffled.

Ruiz gets a shot at cleanup. Crews on the bench in favor of Pinckney.

No Joe Mack for the Marliins due to the LHP starting. 7 righties, just 2 LHH (Stowers, Marseee).

With House in the lineup, we don't need 2 blackholes against righties. Nice of the stat staff that gives Butera the lineup to finally recognize that...

Repeat. Hope Cosgrove is paying attention, his next team might benefit.

Some says he's 2-3 inches taller than Susana

Broken nose perhaps?

Looks like about 400 people in the stands tonight.

They're about to lose me too. There's only so much mouthing of platitudes by minor leaguers I can take. C'mon guys, call the damn game.

I'm normally there but after this train wreck of a season it doesn't seem so bad. Maybe for the bottom of the 9th they can replay some of Teddy's best performances. I was there the night he beat Uncle Slam down at Potomac!

Broadcast team sitting in the stands instead of the booth? Plenty of empty seats for them, I guess.

Third minor-leaguer interview in a row. That's enough for me. Just switched over to the Red Sox game.

Is there a game tonight or was it pre-empted by the Dick Cavett show?

Nah. Dick Cavett had Jimi Hendrix and Jefferson Airplane on his show. These guys are not quite there yet.

Assuming they'll do 5, these are their minor league players of the year in various categories. 6 winners but Pinckney is in the game.

Imagine if Perales had come in in the 9th last night and had an inning like this? We would have been livid.

Kolko running out of things to ask Willits

He's auditioning to be our closer but competition is fierce.

Perales is another Henry Rodriguez

Henry peaked at 0.2 WAR in 2011 for the Nats. Finished his career at -0.7.

Glad House worked on that defense

They’re basically selling minor league baseball and telling the fanbase to swallow it and be satisfied.
