NL Playoff Matchups

Whoa! No way would I be yanking Zimmermann here (2 outs in 9th after a walk).

[Frayed Knot]

Told ya so Matt Williams.

I wouldn't overturn this based on what I'm seeing.

[Frayed Knot]

Nats are getting awfully pissy over a couple of, borderline at worst, ball/strike calls.
First Harper, then Cabrera, and now mgr Williams.

Bottom of the 12th ... 1-1.
I think the pissy gnats will win it this inning.

What the hell are they chanting?

I think it might be WILLLL-SOOOON when Wilson Ramos is up.
A play on the Tom Hanks/Wilson reference from CASTAWAY perhaps?

It's from a Phish song. Seahawks fans originated this as a sports chant.

Players don't do the good fade-away slide like they used to. Had that be me running instead of Posey on that 9th inning hit the Giants would have won the game.
Just throw your body towards the 1st base line and scrape the base with your toe. The catcher would have had nothing to tag.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Cool, thanks WP

[Frayed Knot]

So I guess the Seahawks fans do it for Russell Wilson and Nats fans copped it from them.
Not surprising. Washington fans haven't shown themselves to be very inventive so far. They even have an organized N - A - T - S Nats Nats Nats! chant whenever the team scores.
Haven't seen Fireman Ed anywhere on the premises though.

I forgot there's another game on, I ain't even looking
at it if this ever ends.

I had been flipping between the Giants/Nats game and the Rutgers game. Now I can flip between the two NL games.

Petit is rocking it. Doing the Delgado trade proud.

[Guest Mets � Willets Point]

It says something about the length of the game when your late-inning pinch runner has his second at-bat.

Those rectangular POSTSEASON logos that are on the units, the hats, the field, and just about everywhere else this week, aren't getting' it done.
For starters, the word POSTSEASON is too dorky to build a slogan around. And then logo itself is just plain and boring.

From Baseball-Reference.com:

Petit is the 1st pitcher with 7+ K in a postseason relief appearance since Pedro Martinez (8) on October 11, 1999

Agreed. I'll start with rectangle? and stop right there.

17th inning? 1-1!? Some good games this post.

Ew, that sucks.
I got Doctor Who at midnight. Missed the first run. I like the TV stations that run like a movie theater with 2nd & 3rd showings .

OO, kaboom, some SF guy. 2-1 Giants.

[Edgy MD]

Ah, they took Petit out!

I remember him when he was a wee lad.

Werth is the winning run with the tying one on beis. Gah!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Suck it, Nats.
