The pitching is a bit of a nice surprise, but the defense! How often have we despaired since the start of the season? You're so right - three straight games without an error is definitely worth noting.
if one of their starters were to get dinged he would be the first in line to replace them. the best way to keep him prepared for that is starting in AAA.
There are a ton of reasons to root for the home team today - getting to .500, beat the Os (which is always a treat), hoping for a really good outing for Cavalli, see some dingers from the boys, and end the day with a SERIES WINNING CURLY W and a chance to sweep tomorrow. Oh, and happy 26th Birthday to Luis Garcia, Jr!! He made his debut against the Os when he was 20 and had at least an RBI in a double digit Nats CURLY W!
I think you’re making a play on the Davey Johnson quote “World Series of bust…” prior to the 2013 season, not Bryce. But I could be wrong about your intention.
And we're underway on a warm, 83-degree Saturday afternoon on South Capitol Street. It's once again a big crowd filling in the stands, though it appears there's more orange out there than there was last night. Craig Laughlin did the "Play Ball!" declaration on Alex Ovechkin bobblehead day.

I expected a slugfest last night based on the starters’ ERAs, so let’s hope past is NOT prologue again!
I'm hoping Alverez gets to stay for awhile this time.

So how’s it go 16th time is a charm. Let’s beat the Charm City boys today and keep on moving on.

GO NATS!! ⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️
.500 or bust!
(or maybe not the best choice of words given the infamous Harper quote).
Yes, but where in the world is his ring? Maybe he'll get one this year, maybe never.

Ah, right you are.
The Harper one was where's my ring.
I'll be switching back and forth between the game and the PGA. Sports overload! Let's go Nats, you guys deserve to get to .500!

Good start for Cave today. Controlling the breaking balls well.
Nice 5-4-3 DP started by Tena, who is playing third base for the first time this season. He's been getting a lot of pregame work over there, though.
Baseball math: 5 + 4 + 3 = 2!
Also 5 - 4 - 3 =-2
Some nifty early game jam mastering
KEIBERT RUIZ IS A BEAST!!! ⚾️⚾️⚾️
May earn that trade and contract after all! He just needs a partner like Gomes had Suzuki.
Who IS this guy? It's Keibert!
Is Ruiz going to be a late bloomer?
