LET'S GO NATS GO!
We’re having dinner with friends tonight, but I’ll sneak looks at Gameday if I can… Beat the Braves!
Friend of Dukes and Desmond #3
5 straight, Dunn breaks out against Lowe, but can't catch RBI Zim, bye-bye to Livan, and WIL NIEVES!!!!
All this and more, Howie, and Hammer is not a factor…….
(Can I not shame Willingham into doing something, anything…. that people can use to point at me and laugh at my abject pessimism?…)

Hey...I was at a ballgame and the home team won big.
So, is Fox throwing us a bone and still showing our game or are we just screwer on Saturday at 4:00?
I can't imagine Fox not showing the Rockies/LA everywhere if Colorado wins tonight.
Up 2-1 in the 5th…….
Wait……..“Games selected will be announced one week prior.”
PROGRAMMING NOTE: The final two Saturdays are considered “wild card” dates. Any game or games (up to three) on that day’s schedule can be chosen at the network’s discretion, given proper identification to Major League Baseball. Games selected will be announced one week prior.
