Nats 2013 Regular Season Thread

[apachef4]

Nice double play. 42 pitches through 3, 2-1 Nats.

Loving all these hits but can i be greedy and ask for an extra base hit or 2?

 

[hokiehi21]

3 leadoff walks tonight. Unbelievable. Come on Stras.

 

[apachef4]

Man, Uggla just has his number.

 

[apachef4]

2-2 now. 4 baserunners now thrown out in this game, 2 by each team*. Not good for either, letting pitchers out of jams.

*Freeman was safe at first on his, and Span may have been.

 

[apachef4]

Teheran double to lead off the 5th. Leadoff batter still on every inning...

Is Zimmermann the ace of this staff?

 

[apachef4]

I'm pissed if I'm a Braves fan. Guy can't find the zone, you take a strike.

 

[apachef4]

Is Zimmermann the ace of this staff?

Not "stuff"-wise, but he's certainly pitching the best so far. Definitely the most consistent.

 

[hokiehi21]

whew

 

[apachef4]

Werth and LaRoche on with no outs in the 6th. Need to get some runs here.

 

[apachef4]

Ouch.

 

[apachef4]

Teheran done with 1 out in the 6th, runners on 1st and 2nd.

 

[hokiehi21]

10 hits but 2 runs. Dont know if that's good or bad.

 

[apachef4]

Laz Diaz sure does miss a lot of strikes behind the plate.

 

[apachef4]

Nats get nothing. Both teams stranding a boatload of runners.

 

[apachef4]

 

[hokiehi21]

Struck out the side!

 

[apachef4]

Finally a 1-2-3 inning for Stras as he strikes out the side. He looks like he's throwing much more freely now as opposed to earlier in the game. Velocity rising a bit too.
