6-21: Dallas goes to drain the swamp!!

Putting a good swing on a FB is not a guess, it's a baseball skill. Swinging at fastballs is a big part of hitting. Not all, but a very big part.

Thank you for this in depth analysis.

Please follow it up with your rest of season projections for Riley.
 
at least we have Soroka in game three, but you are right about their schedule. It is as easy a schedule one could imagine before the break and then they face the O's twice after the break and those are like free wins.
I’m too lazy to look but do we play the O’s? lol
 
DK obviously tired early and was rusty, The Braves gave the Nats a big inning, and had the go ahead runs on base in the 9th.

This was not a bad loss.

Agreed. I think I realized the Nats are my most hated team tonight. I thought it was the Phillies but damn I hate losing to Washington

Odd, considering all losses count equally, and the Nats and Braves haven’t actually competed for anything in years, but ok.

Phillies are pretenders, but the Nats are a real threat. Need to beat them every game we can as they are about to have a cake walk of a schedule.
 
I was stunned in the 9th when the Culbertson ball was caught easily. Off the bat I thought it was a certain game tying hit. Tonight was straight frustrating.

And then Dansby looked like he placed a blooper perfectly. However Robles dives and avoids two defenders and blindly catches the ball. And he almost completely dove past the ball but reached back and made the catch. How he managed to catch it while avoiding two other defenders is beyond me. Just flat out bad luck tonight. Move along and take tomorrow and all will be well.
