There's a guy viewing this thread called powerboater69... wasn't he that troll from the MLB board?
Hi!  I just got home from watching the first half of the game at Dogfish Ale bar in Falls Church and the sound on MASN is terrible, I was lurking to see if anyone else was complaining about it.  Great game for the Nats tonight.

The sound does suck, sounds like a webcast.

I Apologize for calling you out. I'm confusing you with someone else.

Lopez 0/5 with 5 ground-outs. I believe he's the only player that did not contribute to the win tonight.

Lopez is now 5 for his last 46 (.109) and his AVG. is down to .232.

Steven Shell seeking a rare SAVE by pitching the last 3 innings.  Normally there must be no more than a 3-run lead.  33,653 attendance.

It's a balk to stop your motion when the guy steps out of the box? I dunno if Don is right about that one.

If time wasn't called, yes.

It sounds better now, but up until the last inning, it sounded like a slight echo.  I wondered if it was my old speakers.

I'm not sure what happened there, I don't think the announcers do either.

Shutout coming!

Hadn't noticed, but your right, it's better now.

Time was never called so technically the umpire fell asleep and didn't call it. You can do if there are no runners aboard though.

Congrats to Shell. I'm not fully convinced on him but he's been better lately. Props to Redding too for the quality start. And obviously our offense was great tonight (except for Felipe).  :clap:

We scored double digits (barely) and shutout the opposition. The sky is falling.

They freaking suck. This happens every time the game is on 20. However, I'm actually getting the postgame tonight. :lol:
