LOL! He did send Werth to the slaughter.
I can’t remember another hour inning.
An hour and six minutes!
10:39 pm to 11:45 pm! Eight different pitchers.
If this goes extras, this could get ridiculous. I cannot believe we had to take Rendon out because we issue a walk with the pitcher on deck ...
If it goes long enough, maybe the fans at the game could take Metro home, after all ...
It’s up to Lady Luck now.
A few more hour innings and it's dawn.
I wonder how many fans had to leave early.
LOL Kershaw coming in for the 9th?
Definitely, if Jansen falters.
Murphy comes up 4th in the inning.
he faltered
This is getting good! Two on, one out, and Murphy up.
double play or home run could end this
Two outs.
And now it comes back to bite. Rendon's spot up with 2 outs in 9th.
And that’s all she wrote.
yep tough loss for the Nats
Oh well. At least we have (hopefully) seen Espinoza’s last plate appearance as a Nat (or, probably, as an MLB starter anywhere). Flawed, injured, team, put up a decent fight.
a National tragedy ...
Painful loss for the Nats. They should look into moving back to Montreal, DC is poison.
It would have been poetic to have to face that damn Dusty Baker.
A Sporting News article I read said the Dodgers were a slightly better match-up for the Cubs though. Here we go.
