Bard can be jogged on. Sub-Piazza, I think.

[Zvon]

Even with all Howards strikeouts, I'd take him on my team in a New York minute.

Loshe 6 in a row? He can't keep this up.

[nymr83]

1st and 3rd with 1 out in the 7th and JC Romero, the 5th Phillies pitcher, will come on.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Ryan Zimmerman, American Hero, and the New Bob Dylan, up looking to pick up that runner.

[TransMonk]

Error on Howard.

3-0 Nats.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Zimmerman gets his man!

[Zvon]

="TransMonk"]Error on Howard. 3-0 Nats.

That was one of the weirdest errors I've ever seen.
Just cause he was so sure he had the ball and he so didn't.
And he STILL had soooo much time.

YIKES! Ruiz bumbles behind the plate, over throws to second, throw to third can't be caught.



4-0 Nat'ls

[TransMonk]

Sweet, another error.

4-0 Nats.

[nymr83]

its 4-0 now.

[Zvon]

Rowand puts em on the board.
Gah.
Man, he laid into that.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I like the idea that Sign Man and the rest of the Shea faithful are still in thier seats watching the Out-of-Town Scoreboard.

come on--find the freakin plate Rivera!

Not their bats tho!
wHaTrYaDoIn?
cripes.

[Zvon]

This Rauch guy can pitch.
He can bring it.
He won't be rollin over.
He's got what it takes.
>[insert your cliche here]

[nymr83]

Victorino is the tying run at the plate with 2 on and 1 out in the 7th

[Zvon]

Whew, Rauch knows how to hustle to cover first too.

[nymr83]

and the Nats have escaped the 7th unscathed.

[TransMonk]

Rauch gets out of trouble.

[DocTee]

In other news, Craig Biggio will start at Catcher for the first time since 1991 in his farewell to MLB. Kewl.

[Gwreck]

Nice play by Fick to knock it down and prevent the double.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

I really wanted the Mets to trade for Rauch (rather than Cordero) at the deadline. Dude can toss it.

[Guest Rotblatt]

[Guest Edgy DC]

Me mum is visiting me, and we're going out to dinner.

Phils win, it's on youse.

That IS so kool.

I agree. Kept track cause I've had him on fantasy teams and he gets it done way more than he doesn't. And can go two effortlessly.

HI EDGYS MOM!

[Gwreck]

Fuck. Nationals lead down to 2.

[Zvon]

I tip my hat to Rauch for not pitching around Howard.
Unfortunately, Howard also tips his hat to the home crowd following that homer.

[Gwreck]

Tony Gwynn, Jr. just tripled off Hoffman to tie up the Brewers in the bottom of the 9th.

And keep the Padres from clinching for at least another inning.

[Zvon]

To the Washington Nationals with the sign guys best regards:
