    Alvarez sucks. He swings at everything in the dirt all playoffs. I keep thinking he due. But if he keeps swinging at trash he ain't going hit anything.

    They look like a team that took a monster punch in the gut. Better snap out of it with 6 outs left.

    Correa will be the reason we have a chance in this one. Who else will step up though?

    Pretty much this. You can only take so much failure with RISP the ENTIRE post season before it just gets exhausting.

    Ball should still be traveling, that should have been a colossal mistake. He didn't need to throw anything to hit and still got Alvarez.

    We just continue to fail in big spots. We've dominated this game and yet are losing.

    That horrible missed strike against Soto is so painful.

    We were never going to hold on with that 2-0 lead. Everyone knew it.

    Nats get 3 hits all in the same inning, score 3 runs...We have 10 hits, scattered all the over place, we just haven't put anything together but top of the order is due in the 9th so who knows what happens

    Still got 2 more innings to play with Springer Altuve Brantley guaranteed to bat. Hopefully Bregman will get another chance as well.

    It sure feels like it.

    They talked about the Nats history, playing some Baby Shark trash, it feels like their coronation. Sick to watch.

    Not sure why Osuna is still out here.

    Sorry guys it’s over. This team couldn’t hit a beach ball with RISP if the fate of the universe depended on it.
