[Official] Nationals @ Astros

Actually holding out hope we can get something decent at the TD. Dude should be close to a 3 ERA by nights end and making little to nothing in todays MLB. I am sure a contender wouldn't mind giving up a solid AA prospect with potential for a solid #3 basically paying nothing for him.

 

Wonderful.

Lyon has given up a hit, 2 walks and just hit a batter. Lead is down to 1.

 

Good recovery.

Higher pressure situation now for Lindstrom.

 

Berkman with his 26th walk of the season. He's almost in the top 20 in the NL in that category despite missing 14 games.

 

Big game for Hunter: HR, 1B, 2 BB

Berkman, too: 2B, 1B, BB, 3 RBI

And Kepp: 3-for-4 (all singles), his AVG is up to .310

 

I say Morgan steals easily if he tries it.

 

Bases juiced, no outs.

Lindstrom got a little unlucky on Morgan's infield single but besides that, his command isn't there.

 

Crap. 13 hits, and looks like it will be in a losing effort.

 

That's Lindstrom's 2nd terrible outing in his last 3.

His WHIP is well over 1.50 on the season.

3 H, 2 BB, BS so far with only 1 out. He got yanked.

 

Fear not, we have Feliz, Cash, Sullivan/Quintero in the 9th.

 

Bring Paulino off the bench. Hitting better then anyone on the team this season.

 

Does anybody remember Capps getting into it with somebody on our team lat season when he was with the Pirates?

I can't recall who it was on our side. I'm thinking Tejada but can't remember for sure.

 

Feliz gets on due to an error. We'll take it.

 

Sully! I knew you could do it! (not)

Still need another hit.

 

If Kepp puts it in play, I hope he finds a gap. I fear a GIDP.

 

Watching Gamecast. Feliz only moved one base on a double?

 

doesnt seem like there should be any way possible that a player on 2nd doesnt score on that hit

 

I thought that too initially.

Feliz had to wait to see if it would drop, rightfully so.

The ball seemed to bounce right into the guy's glove and got back in quickly.

Up to Berkman now...

 

That ball was hittable. Berkman overswung.

0-2 now.

 

BERKMAN!!!!!!!!!
