Our broadcasters have one of the easiest jobs in the world and they can't even show up for it half the time.

Luke Montz just hit a 3-run BOMB after Maxwell and Bernadina drew back-to-back walks. Senators are up 4-2 in the bottom of the 3rd.

Wow. That dude is seriously freaking awesome. Between him and Flores I think we are set at catcher for the foreseeable future.

.394 7 HRs 29 RBIs in 66 ABs

Hopefully Balester has a solid outing tonight.

i look for lannan to continue his domination and add some more credibility to his rookie of the yr campaign

and i look for the nats to continue their resurgent rebound to .500!

Yeah, Dukes is also batting lead-off and playing LF tonight.

You know, with the initials he has, if Colome were to become a really amazing closer, he could have the awesomest nicknames.

I'm hopeful, but it's also pretty doubtful.

No chance. Another bad outing or two and his ass is gone.

Oh, I don't see it as a possibility. I just wish it were. Because it would be so hilarious! Jesus Colome, Superstar; I Believe in Jesus; the 9th inning could be called "The Day of Judgment". And of course, after each win, we could all yell ... JESUS SAVES!!

And that's why I wish he were an awesome closer. Apologies if I offend any religious folks.

No problem. I'll take the blame if we lose.

When's the game supposed to start? Schedule says 1 minute from now, but Gameday is still on "Lineups" (as opposed to the usual "Warmups").

Dukes doubled in his first AAA at-bat!

Where are you watching? The Clippers site says it's still top-o'-the-first.

Beautiful double play! Great job by Lopez and Guzman on that.

Awesome DP!!!! Show some enthusiasm, Johnnie!

Wonder how many baseball games start with a hit batsman on the very first pitch...

The fill-in announcer for Carpenter just announced Jason Bay as "the Pirates slugging third baseman"...
