    Definitely close. I'll keep my eyes peeled for the 3B angle.

    For sure, we do avoid Harvey though so that's nice.

    Looks like we will get Niese and Wheeler.

    I think it's fairly safe to assume that the umpire would not have made that call if the game were being played in Washington.

    Possibly not. It's nice to pretend umpires aren't fools

    Yes we got him and Wheeler either back to back or in a double header.

    Yes, he pitched in Atlanta in that DH the Mets swept us.

    It was the latter, Harvey in game one and Wheeler in game two of that DH Mets sweep.

    It's the nationals, their home games sound lilke the other team's road games. Fairweather fans.

    Not defending Gnad fans, but I feel like this was the line on Atlantans for a while.

    Enter infield fly-gate:

    Only was really the problem back when Cubs, Yanks or Sox came to town. Braves had more of a rep as a non-caring fanbase. Washington is worse than Atlanta in many ways to be honest. Because like Atlanta it's a big transplant base, but unlike Atlanta they're a new Franchise.

    From Kevin McAlpin:
    Bryce Harper (on the atmosphere this weekend): "I love these fans. I really do. They're absolutely unbelievable for their team."

    So in the last nine games against the Nats we went 7-2 with a +9 run differential. Seven 1-run games. It feels like the reverse of fortunes from last year.

    1. Great win, especially considering the 'B' team was in!
    2. Teheran is really learning how to pitch rather than just throw.
    3. Could have swept them this weekend; hope Soriano continues having blown saves.
    4. Great that we can savor this win tonight as well as tomorrow.
    5. Sorry for the doubters but Bryce swung; his bat broke the plane. (Why would anyone over here even question it????)

    Wonder who Harper yelled at in the stands? Some fan was getting on him good right after Werth turned him away from the ump and he started walking into the dugout. Would love to know what was said!
