Young will not be beaten with the Koehler fastball.

KABLAMMO!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Suck it Koehler.

Freezing out here

[Zvon]

What a great at bat. Was he guessing curve or was that an adjustment?

I can't believe I'm not missing Laggy.

Coldest place in the city, some days.

[Edgy MD]

Sheesh, could anybody have at least gotten close to that ball?

[Edgy MD]

Gurrrrgeous play by Recker.

[Zvon]

BIG DP!
Does Gee go 8? It looked like he was hitting that wall.

[Edgy MD]

Sure got the double play working today.

Find it hard to believe anybody could be cold watching Anthony Recker play live.

[Edgy MD]

LeGrand hits another YSIII homerun.

[Guest d'Kong76]

He's looking better though, hopefully winter will be over soon.

[Zvon]

Ugh. I hate this ball park! Or more so it's dimensions. The park itself is pretty sweet.

[Zvon]

Whoever that 1st baseman is he sucks.

Murphy reaches and steals 2nd.

[Edgy MD]

Power vs. Power here.

[Edgy MD]

Gee = For Reals

[Zvon]

I'm rooting for the complete game now. GO GEE!!!

Pitching now and on the horizon will ease the hate.

[Zvon]

Nope, Gee won't last 9. Maybe not 8.

OOh, big K. But like a dozen pitches there.

GO GEE!

[Theoldmole]

Let him pitch the 9th.

[Edgy MD]

Gee getting the handshakes. Send him to the plate and then call him back.

[Edgy MD]

Hit by Recker. Get those last three outs and my day is complete.

110 pitches but I would'a given him a chance. Any one reaches, pull him.

This would have been a nice touch.

[Zvon]

Another series win!

[Edgy MD]

That's a Sunday.

Great pitching by Gee.
Great game called by Recker.
Great defense from Wright.
Great homer from Young.

That was a pretty nice home-stand considering how woeful the offense has been so far this year.

[Guest d'Kong76]

I'm happier than all heck!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Great win. Incredibly cold in the shade and not as though I wasn't dressed warm. Young home run was terrific; he must have fouled off a half dozen before it. Happened to notice the brand of urinals shared a name with today's opponent; it was great to piss all over KOHLER

* Nats lost today (split 4 this weekend w/the Padres) so we gain back the game we lost to them on Saturday and re-leap-frog them back into 2nd

* Braves win 1-0 in the 10th on a Freddie F Freeman walk-off double (turns out he doesn't just do it to us) so we remain 3.5 back

* Phillies still phightin' it out in the Valley of the Sun, so their gap behind us either remains one game or jumps to two depending on that outcome as we prepare for the two-game head to head starting Tuesday

* the weekend dropped the Marlins 3 back of us




Good weekend overall; could have been better but also could have been worse.

14-11 is OK, although a bit more than OK when you remember that it's off an 0-3 start. 14-8 is a nice 22-game run, especially when six of those were vs Atlanta and there was a west-coast trip thrown in

You can see the intrigue in Chris Young even if he's destined to be frustrating at times
