What do you say we hammer this horrible pitcher and make this one a little easier tonight boys?

2. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 08:15 PM (#4202768)

Man, it looks like Houston is going to try to break their record for smallest crowd at their home stadium four consecutive days in a row.

3. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 08:30 PM (#4202781)

Danny Espinosa!

4. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 08:39 PM (#4202787)

Hamels is doing a number on Atlanta so far tonight, which is nice.

5. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 08:54 PM (#4202795)

What in the hell kind of call was that??

6. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 09:07 PM (#4202800)

I like it when our power-armed staff is pumping fastballs like they should be, and not 60% changeups.

7. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 09:25 PM (#4202808)

Complete game shutout for Hamels over the little Braves!

8. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 09:40 PM (#4202814)

Come on ump.

9. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 09:41 PM (#4202815)

Nice! Now let's get those bats going here.

10. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 09:58 PM (#4202829)

Simply another outstanding outing for the best #5 starter in all of baseball.

11. Esoteric throws a 'hard slider' Posted: August 07, 2012 at 10:16 PM (#4202840)

Beginning to think we'll never score again.

12. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 10:25 PM (#4202852)

Mike Fiers pitched another gem tonight against the Reds. This could be such a golden opportunity for us to gain ground on people if we can just get one more big hit.

13. Esoteric throws a 'hard slider' Posted: August 07, 2012 at 10:54 PM (#4202869)

Seriously, we're going to lose to the Astros. On a night the Braves lost too, no less.

WTF is it about our offense that suddenly disappears when facing teams that should be pushovers?

14. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 10:56 PM (#4202870)

Phew!

15. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 11:07 PM (#4202876)

It's hard to believe we haven't done anything in eight innings against this awful staff.

16. Esoteric throws a 'hard slider' Posted: August 07, 2012 at 11:10 PM (#4202878)

Calling it: we lose in twelve.

17. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 11:16 PM (#4202883)

Nope, eleven is our lucky number.

18. The Yankee Clapper Posted: August 07, 2012 at 11:37 PM (#4202900)

Center fielder slowed down going up hill.

19. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 11:42 PM (#4202904)

Alright Danny boy!!

20. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 11:50 PM (#4202909)

PLEASE close this one out with no drama Clip. I can't take much more of this.

21. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 07, 2012 at 11:54 PM (#4202911)

And of course, there will be drama.

22. Joey B. has ignited his October #Natitude Posted: August 08, 2012 at 12:07 AM (#4202918)

YES!!! BANG, ZOOM, it's just another routine 12 inning Curly W in the books!!!

23. TerpNats Posted: August 08, 2012 at 12:15 AM (#4202922)

Catch of the year! Thank you, Shark. And now, a four-game lead.

(BTW, the kid in the red Nats cap and Maryland T-shirt is no relation to me.)
