After looking terrible all night!!



And we're already 2.4 runs scored above our extra inning average.

As J.D. slams a three-run homer over the fence, I was going to say that I've gotten the impression that visiting teams do a better job breaking the game open in the era of the free runner. Like the rules force the home teams to play with their backs to the wall.



I don't know if that's true, and obviously home teams have a lot more trouble "breaking the game open" when one run can end things, but hey! We broke the game open!

[Cowtipper]

I enjoyed the guy spazzing in the Grimace costume.

[Edgy MD]

Tyrone Taylor has had a week's worth of drama in the last two half innings.

And (until tonight anyway) we've sucked both home and away for whatever that's worth.



These four runs are already the most we've scored in any free runner inning this year.

Three was our previous high. Twice we've given up five.

[Frayed Knot]

This is just stunning!

I'm starting to think we've got a decent chance of winning this one.

[Frayed Knot]

Here's the game plan Tyler: DON'T WALK ANYONE!!!!

[Lefty Specialist]

Well, that was fun.

[Edgy MD]

I'm not sure I remembered to buy Tyler Jay insurance.

[Bob Alpacadaca]

This is getting scarier than it should be.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Gotdamn, Wood is a big fella.

He didn't listen.

[Centerfield]

What a stupid fucking move by Mendoza to let the tying run come up before making the switch.

[Lefty Specialist]

Okay, just fuck this bullpen. Stearns, you HAVE to do something.

[Edgy MD]

Tyler Jay worked HARD to get to the point where the tying run is on.

And note that I didn't say we had a Good chance of winning ... merely that we had a decent one.

[Frayed Knot]

Do the Nats dare try a double steal?

Probably not.

[Bob Alpacadaca]

Exhale.

"The damn thing is over!"

[Frayed Knot]

And they win the damn thing 9-7!

[Centerfield]

What a stupid game

[Lefty Specialist]

Wow, there's a win that feels like a loss.

[Frayed Knot]

Ten runs scored in the 10th.

Even with the clown car rules that's ridonculous.

[Chad ochoseis]

This bullpen isn't bad if you spot them six runs.

[Centerfield]

It's not all Mendoza. Obviously. But pulled Peterson too early. Left Jay in too long.



Christ Carlos. Be better.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Jay's problem is those little letters on the back of the jersey look even tinier on 3 letter names, and cannot possibly uplift the 74 beneath them

David Peterson v MacKenzie Gore. Time to get off the mini-schneid and back into a win streak. Let's go !
