our catchers are full of devastating offensive power!

[98navigator]

"ya'll must be crazy!"

[Sarcastic]

Even though they left two runners on base, that was by far the best inning they've had as far as making Bergman throw pitches.

[Allroy]

That is going to come back and haunt us.

[tfarks]

I told my buddy that Jones would get 4 hits today before he went to the Police concert (lucky), he said I should stop doing drugs. I pointed out as of recently I am taking antibiotics and am a completely sober man, thus my predictions are to be reckoned with. I'm halfway to prophecy here.

[cubweiser03]

that was a good pitch to hit and koyie did nothing to it.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Kearns grounded out to short, 6-3

[CubColtPacer]

It's something with the Bergmann-Jones matchup. Jones has had 5 at-bats against him this year, and has 3 doubles and 2 balls that were drilled and caught against the wall with the wind blowing in.

[Soul]

I was wrong about Jacque, too bad it was Ramirez.

 

Nats announcers are totally oblivious of ARam's knee injury.

 

What'd they say?

 

They are saying he must have injured himself on that earlier slow roller play when he threw out the runner. Someone should get them an injury report.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Lopez walked

[98navigator]

stop walking people

[inari]

Hey Sean, the walks... cut it out.

I think they're at least partially right. I've seen Ramirez run full bore to beat out a double play ball since he's come back from injury, he didn't look as comfortable running the bases there as he has looked in previous games since coming off the DL.

Nice 1-6-3 DP

[Soul]

Great double play. That was nice.

[inari]

What the hell? Our pitchers not named Kerry Wood aren't supposed to make that play.

I understand what you're saying, but ARam has said he won't be 100% for the rest of the year, and it's clearly got a prior injury component to it, so they should at least be aware of that so they can mention it. At the very least it should be framed as a possible 're-injury'

[98navigator]

What the hell? Our pitchers not named Kerry Wood aren't supposed to make that play.

 

That wasn't quite the glove behind the back Kerry Wood special but I'll take it.

59 pitches for Marshall through 4

Izturis flied out to deep right field

I've heard of soft hands. Marshall has a soft gut 8-)
