Nationals @ Pirates, Game 3

[ronnynat]

Back to laundry. Bus will be here soon too.  ONE MORE DAY OF SCHOOL for FCPS.

All that means to me is that I need to look out for more kids crossing the street during the day.

[ronnynat]

Didn't we crush Yates when he was w/ the Braves?

Bring us some beer, while you're at it.

[ronnynat]

Wow, that's a late sub.

[ZIM4MVP]

He singled in his previous at bat.

and was thrown out on a dumb baserunning error

[JMUalumni]

dont understand why we waited until strike two to sub Harris in to run

[Obed_Marsh]

Weird timing on the pinch runner.

[kimnat]

Get it yourself, Earl.  No one's blocking the fridge.

[spidernat]

Milledge has no plate discipline. What the hell took Acta so long to pinch run, was he looking it up on wikipedia?

[Nat of the Living Dead]

Nothing about this team surprises me anymore.

[hammondsnats]

got one back.  come on fellas!!!

[PatsNats28]

waste of harris's speed and young's bat

Maybe it was to mess w/ the pitcher. Didn't work.

[nats2playoffs]

Weird timing on the pinch runner.

The pitcher's up next.  Maybe they were waiting to see if Milledge was walked.

[ronnynat]

I hate you, Bob.

[JMUalumni]

Nothing about this team surprises me anymore.

I would have to agree with this, but I will admit I do get a bit surprised when we win nowadays...

[ronnynat]

Holy crap! We don't have anyone left on the bench now?!

[nats2playoffs]

Get it yourself, Earl.  No one's blocking the fridge.

I see your lips moving, but I'm not tasting my beer.

Are you kidding?  How many 7, 8, 9, 10+ pitch at bats has he had in recent weeks?  He's struck out just 5 times in his last 14 games and has walked 6 times over that period.  Guzman, Flores and Milledge have had the best at bats in recent weeks.  What the hell are you talking about?

[spidernat]

Did you guys hear that John Rauch (former Oakland Raiders coach) died yesterday?

It's Rauch's day to freak up.

He swung at bullcrap in that at bat and dug himself a hole but you're another AZ except your wood is for Milledge so whatever.

[nats2playoffs]

They should have activated Chad Cordero off the DL, so he could pinch hit.

[ronnynat]

Money curve. More of those, Rauch.

[Dave B]

why did manny put rauch in at 8th. leave langerhans there and put rauch in milledge's spot, a full 9 batters down the line. now our pitcher's spot comes up 4th this inning with no bench players, right?

[spidernat]

They had about 50K total attendance for this 3 game series. They have more than that for one game in Yankee stadium.
