It's friggin April and I'm having reactions like it's mid September in my living room.
Nimmo flies out. That's game. Send the Nats fans home happy to at least not get swept.
It is a long 162 game season, but in that last 2 weeks if the standings are down to one game, it's games like this that you look at.
Davis sends it right to Soto. 2 outs.
McNeil flies to LF. Davis up.
Canha leads off with a single to right center.
Line drive to Alonso. Mets need 2 runs to force the Nats up again.
Welp. 4-2 Nats and I let out an audible word with windows open.
8th is getting away from the Mets. Tie game. Alonso with two bad throws.
The bad: bases loaded
The good: two outs and Soto got on with a fielder's choice (vs a base hit).
Doolittle took down the threat. I think he feels mildly avenged from a few years back when we tossed him around.
Nido bunted. That success lead to restrategizing from Nimmo. Went down swinging. Now Cano...
and Soto down with a ground ball to 2B. Sweet.
okay now he is. Soto is a threat any time. But 15 in a row is quite promising.
Cookie ain't done!
Not much happening. Carrasco may be done for the day. 5IP, 2H, 1R, retired the final 13 he faced. AKA, the Nats have no hits since the first inning. Half a game to go though.
Make it 10 with 4 strikeouts.
He's our #4 starter.
(but this is the Nationals....)
Caught with a home run early, but Carrasco is....settled? I think he just retired his ninth in a row.
Movie fan. Mets fan. I like to travel. Once scored a goal against a Jamaican soccer team in Cuba.
