    Don't blame Strasburg for being pissed. Looked like he had Dansby struck out on that 2-2 pitch. It was much better than the first pitch strike called on Inciarte.

    Someone needs to tell Dusty that the pitch count doesn't start over after a pitcher reaches 100 pitches.

    He would see sliders after curveballs after sliders from me all on the outside of the plate, No way I give him anything middle in that is a fastball.

    Strasturd must had a brain fart letting our K leader getting solid wood on him.

    Breaking ball located there is hard to get called a strike because while it might cross the plate in the zone, it's caught outside it. Catcher didn't do his pitcher any favors either.

    True, but he'd been getting that call all day. I was shocked it wasn't called a strike.

    His ops is close around .875 for the month. You're really letting your Swanson hate show through.

    Saving the big boys. I don't like it. But it is very defendable.

    Forgot that all of them have been used each of the last two games.

    So Koda Glover is a lot younger than me and was a baby when I left, but we went to the same grade school and grew up a couple of miles from where I lived. He comes from a town called Monroe, OK which has a population of less than 200 people. Tough for me because he is on the hated Nationals, but hard to not root for him.

    Kemp completely sucks on defense--pay no attention to the nice play he just made. (Yeah, I know the Kemp haters will just say he made a routine play look far more difficult than it really was.)

    I'm an Okie, too, and I hope we light up Glover.
