    Would've liked for Alex to pitch again today.

    A Wood vs. Wood matchup would've been preferable.

    Just seems right to do it on your own.

    Not sure how they would of celebrated if the Nats lost last night.

    What is the stadium specific celebration for Wrigley Field (a la the Dodgers jumping in the pool)? Having heat strokes in the bleachers? Weed-eating the ivy?

    I won't be too sad if the Braves lose and the Zombie Expos win today, since I'll be at tomorrow's tilt and wouldn't mind seeing The Clinch in person.

    I'm not complaining. But literally, this is our Sunday get away day lineup on the day we can wrap up the division. Laird, BJ, and Uggla have no business in there today.

    I really want Medlen to hit Wood so I can finally use, "He got good Wood on that ball!"

    Again, I'm not not complaining. I just mentioned I didn't understand. Get over yourself.
