Other Games Week of 5/31

[David]

i wasn't so much worried as annoyed that we had such an embarrassingly paltry lead

You would be one of the last people in the history of nsbb that I would have attributed the word "worried" to (if you were responding to me.

A straight steal of home, especially with a slide that ridiculous, has to be about the most exciting playing baseball.

Sale and Strasburg both fail to get win #10

[Transmogrified Tiger]

The Cardinals are averaging 3.5 runs per game against the Cubs, and 5.6 runs per game against everyone else.

 

The Pirates are averaging 2.2 runs per game against the Cubs, and 5.3 runs per game against everyone else.

Today's weird MLB play...the Blue Jays score two runs on a strikeout: http://m.mlb.com/video/v775695283/torbos-blue-jays-get-two-runs-on-a-strikeout/?game_pk=447707

All the NL Central teams won today, that has to be relatively rare

no i realize it wasn't being directed at me...just saying. the record got a little too pedestrian for my liking too.

So, Dusty put Strasburg back into the game in the sixth inning after a rain delay at the end of the fifth. Predictably, Strasburg is now injured.

 

WTG, Dusty.

Hey, he just does what the dice says dude.

Watching Dusty do line up construction for other teams pleases me.

 

Batting Ben Revere and Michael Taylor 1st and 2nd ahead of Harper makes me giddy inside.

 

Meanwhile Trea Turner went 3-3 with a walk in his first game Friday and is rewarded with being benched on both Saturday and Sunday only to be sent back down to the minors tomorrow.

[Liam Neeson]

And of course after I make fun of lineup construction the Nationals put up double digits.

[David]

Never would've thought I'd be rooting for the second place Pirates to win games outside our own division in early June, but here we are.
