GDT 8/17/2013: Nationals @ Braves

[Krovahn]

Come on J-HEY!

 

[Heyward]

Bleh, looked lost the entire time.

Do work, JHey.

 

[TDlxANDER]

The first pitch behind looked Ankiel like. The second one...not so much. And after he saw the tossed signal...Stras just walked to the bench...no words no emotion.

 

[ChapelHillMatt]

So is their goal to injure one of our players or retaliate?

I'm confused.

 

[skidlee]

I think Strasburg knew exactly what he was doing

but couldn't do it

 

[bravesnumberone]

We need some more insights from the Nats' forum.

Also, we don't need to squander this chance here.

 

[Orphan Black]

I think Strasburg knew exactly what he was doing

That could be, but that first one behind the back wasn't even close. Unless he was just trying to set up the ump to say he was just wild.

 

[Heyward]

Thats a run if the bunt gets down.

 

[stpeteirish]

I think Strasburg knew exactly what he was doing

then he needs to let his catcher in on it.

 

[bravesnumberone]

We let them off the hook there. Just need our bullpen to shut it down.

 

[thethe]

Wow, we really needed to get another run there. That sucked. Did not expect Heyward/Upton to fail there.

 

[Murphfan]

He was setting up the ump for another drill.

 

[stpeteirish]

two innings its 8:41, didn't this game start at 7:10?

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

To say it's been an odd two innings is like saying it gets a bit warm during Summer.

 

[Heyward]

Terrrrible to squander that opportunity.

Does Stras get suspended, that looked intentional.

Wonder how Giles defends that.

 

[JusticeForAll23]

And 1 hour and 33 minutes later we've finally completed TWO innings!

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

It has taken an hour and 20 minutes to play the first two innings here. Take that #Yankees and #RedSox.

 

[cajunrevenge]

If we come back to win this game you will be suspended for 2 days, non-negotiable.

Thank you, I hate people who give up on games so easily. Especially when they hang around the rest of the game thread repeating their doom and gloom.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Who here besides me thinks when Minor got taken out in the second inning, Carpenter tried to find a hole to crawl into? #fredi

 

[ChapelHillMatt]

What I hate about this the most is what if one of our pitches get away and we hit someone? Then they probably charge the mound and we have a fight.
