    But a win is a win is a win, so I can't really complain.
    Because he will use him 3 times in a row and a 3 run lead is still a save situation.

    If their third base coach keeps sending runners on him, they'll hate Simmons even more soon enough. Hehe.

    Jealousy is all I can come up with. Same with the Freeman quote.

    Yep, I reckon they're still sore over Simmons nailing their boy at the plate, etc.

    More wisdom from Nats fans:

    "I hope some Barves fan takes a dump in Baseball Is Life's hat."

    Don't know what it means though.

    No, when fans of an opposing team see Player A smile after making a good play they automatically think they are arrogant. You're not supposed to smile in baseball, didn't you know that.

    Me, I am the opposite....I think Harper is an ass clown because he has no emotion and generally looks like he doesn't even want to be out there.

    Last time I checked, you were supposed to have fun making 3 billion dollars throwing and hitting a ball.

    They deleted my post. All I said was, someone got their wings "clipped," and I put in the Braves thread out of respect. Should have put it in the gamethread where I wanted to.

    Strasburg is a whiner. Not sure he's ever done anything wrong. Gattis' HR was luck and dismissed. This article says the Upton steal was a gamble. He says that we only made weak contact.

    Even if it is true, I never see Strasburg say someone got him or deserved it, without some sort of qualifier. That dink stuff beats us from time to time too, and you don't see Braves quotes about how lucky the other team is and how superior we are.

    I've never been impressed with Strasberg. Granted he throws a Kazillion MPH and has nice "stuff" but I'll eat my hat if he is ever a championship caliber pitcher.

    Always thought there were reasons why some pitchers never get run support or the defense behind them plays with tight sphincters.

    How sweet it is. All offseason we heard about the Nats. Earlier this year we swept them and they made excuses. 13.5 game lead right now and they are still making excuses. Face it Nats, the Braves are just flat out..BETTER

    This made me smile as well. In the 90s, it seemed everywhere we went, Braves fans were loud and many in number. Felt like that last night.

    ..and I love eating crow. I felt like this team didnt have that killer instinct. We have won 11 straight and the fire this team is playing with is simply awesome. Confidence that we will win every game, no panic, and just winning baby. Combine that with Freddies comments about when opponent is down, we are stepping on there necks...and Justin Uptons comments about it doesnt matter how far up you are in the standings, every game matters...LOVE IT!
