I don’t worry too much about the run differential. Baseball has always been about pitching and defense and it always will be because those two elements are less likely to go in a slump as offense.
I always loved lower scoring, well played games. That’s not winning good enough for some I guess.
July 6, 2024 at 3:02 pm #259311Yeah, for all of the glitz and glory of game 6 of the ’11 WS, it was in reality a very sloppily played game by both teams, while game 5 of the ’11 NLDS and game 7 of the ’06 NLCS were both low scoring, well played and tightly contested elimination games that were just as heart pounding as was that ’11 WS game. A 1-0 elimination game is definitely not for the squeamish…Haha!
July 6, 2024 at 3:21 pm #259313That was placed right in his wheelhouse for the 3 run HR.
July 6, 2024 at 3:21 pm #259314Had a feeling this would be a clunker for Lynn. He may not make it to the 5th.
Lefties are teeing off like it’s batting practice. 4-0
July 6, 2024 at 3:30 pm #259315They just flashed a clip of a Carlson HR against the Nats in June of ’23. They have to go back more than a year find a highlight.
July 6, 2024 at 3:36 pm #259317Lynn working on the perfect game…I don’t think he’s missed the barrel of the bat.
July 6, 2024 at 3:38 pm #259318Haha 1TD he is hitting those bats really well. I wonder if Liberatore pitches a few innings today as Lynn’s pitch count is climbing fast.
July 6, 2024 at 3:40 pm #259319The Nats are going to have a really good OF for the next few years. Crews, Young, and Wood. All 3 are good CF defenders so Crews and Wood in the corners will be great. And wow I’m typing that and Wood hits his 1st career bomb.
July 6, 2024 at 3:42 pm #259320Lance wants to reclaim his title of highest HR/9 for the season.
July 6, 2024 at 3:42 pm #259321At least we won’t have to debate whether Helsley is used today or not. Looks like a good game to use Gallegos.
It also appears that today’s game will further skew the run differential. It only counts as one loss in the standings though.
July 6, 2024 at 3:47 pm #259322This game’s an ambush a massacre and a humiliation all rolled into one. Add in a trouncing and it’s a 4 for 1 sale.
July 6, 2024 at 3:49 pm #259323Chip away…
July 6, 2024 at 3:50 pm #259324What the . . .
I missed two innings, what’s going on?
July 6, 2024 at 3:51 pm #259325I’ve been watching and don’t know. Happened too fast…Haha!
July 6, 2024 at 4:00 pm #259326The prototypical season scores continue – we win close and lose big. Thankfully I have not been watching – way too nice out to sit in front of the tube. The Nats have done me a favor, but if later I read of a miraculous comeback and a 12-11 Cardinal win I will be upset, but can watch the condensed game later or tomorrow morning at breakfast.
July 6, 2024 at 4:07 pm #259327Gorman with another poor AB and a K to kill it at a 5 run game.
July 6, 2024 at 4:14 pm #259328With the way Lynn is pitching we’re going to need a bakers dozen to win
July 6, 2024 at 4:17 pm #259329Looks like DC found a nice player with the Wood youngster.
July 6, 2024 at 4:21 pm #259330Get the bat on the ball. Anything but a strike out. If the ball is in plsy there is a chance. You can’t hide a 37% K rate.
July 6, 2024 at 4:21 pm #259331They got Abrams, Gore, and Wood in the Juan Soto deal. As much as it sucks to trade Soto, their haul appears to be doing well. They also got Hassell and Susana who are still in the minors.
July 6, 2024 at 4:23 pm #2593322 and 2/3rds innings for Lynn. That just is not going to cut it for a SP and he couldn’t even tough it out with a short pen to at least get 4 or 5.
July 6, 2024 at 4:25 pm #259333Lynn’s ERA went from 3.58 entering the day all the way up to 4.48. Almost a full run in a single day with 90 innings on the year. That is a hard task to do but Lynn did it.
July 6, 2024 at 4:43 pm #259334I just turned it on. Ugh. What a terrible, awful start. Now we have to waste the pen.
July 6, 2024 at 5:01 pm #259335Leave Libby in there for a few innings.
July 6, 2024 at 5:04 pm #259336Lol 1td. There’s a limit to what chipping away can do. I think we have to chunk away today.
