2014 NL East Division Champs Washington Nationals(News, Notes, Scores, and Discussion)

[StillUnknown]

Yeah--but you definitely use them here...

 

WOW....that was a MILE wide strike zone.

 

The umps strikezone has been inconsistent all day, for both sides really.

 

 

Ramos took a ball of the ribs while catching, that is part of the danger of batting him 4th. Now Jose Lobaton is our cleanup guy.

[Riggo#44]

Juan Lugares? Really?

[@DCGoldPants]

Ugh, Well.....that was not good.

[Warhead36]

Letting two scrubs hit bombs off you, sure fire way to lose.

[CRobi21]

Dont understand how our Ps can be painting consistently, and when they do miss its belt high down the middle. Why cant they miss 3 ft out or in up or down. No. Always right down the middle.

[skinfan2k]

if we can get to Desmond we win this game.  Werth, Lebaton, and Harper are up for us

[Riggo#44]

#SPANNING!

Desi leads off this inning...

Desi leads off this inning...

 

for some reason i thought it was werth but i guess you are right.  I completely forget that valvarde had a clean inning in the 8th

[Forehead]

You know, Bobby Parnell is still the Mets closer.  Just saying, we have a chance here.

[@DCGoldPants]

good thing about Desi leaving off is that Harper won't get out at 2nd.

its Desmond, ALR, & Rendon

 

 

if Desi gets on, I like our chances

they need Desi running, gotta stay out of the double play

[CRobi21]

Inconsistent ump puts Rendon in the hole...

Good approach by Espi. Took 2 balls he wouldve swung at and missed last year.

[ixcuincle]

Walked!

We are level!

[CRobi21]

That a baby D Span!!!

[@DCGoldPants]

yes!

[StillUnknown]

Span is teh Clutch 

 

 

huge AB from Espi as well

[Bacon]

Break it open, Zimm!

[CrypticVillain]

Clutch hit by Span. I wish I could have seen it!!!!

[skinfan2k]

great AB by Danny

if Rzim doesn't pull through here, thats 6 man left on base for him already!

[StillUnknown]

Espi would have struck out 3 different times within that AB last season.

[skinfan2k]

i knew Desmond would come through in a close game.  

[Forehead]

You know, Bobby Parnell is still the Mets closer.  Just saying, we have a chance here.

 

I'm going to go ahead and break my own arm patting myself on the back.

[@DCGoldPants]

This is going to be interesting with Barrett. 

[StillUnknown]

Espi stays in at 2nd, Rendon to 3rd, Zimm to the bench.

[Riggo#44]

If Quintilla his a HR...
