Game 103: Get 'em tomorrow!

Yaaay!	Willie Harris' RBI double (+0.116)
Boooo!	Nyjer Morgan pops out with 2 on, 2 out in the 9th (-0.144)
Hero(?)	Cristian Guzman (+0.106)
Goats	John Lannan (-0.225), Nyjer Morgan (-0.214)

Not much good stuff out of the Nats tonight in terms of WPA. On the other hand, I'm almost positive I saw Anderson Hernandez at the hotel getting on the elevator as we were getting off to head to our room! The hair was right, the shape of the face and the height, too. It didn't sink in until I was past him, though, so I didn't have a chance to be all, "Way to turn it, butterfingers! Get a smaller glove, you bum!!" Yeah, he would have kicked my butt (if Mrs. Doghouse didn't first). This was at about midnight.

Missed your chance, Doghouse.....

Almost as good as my running into Warren Cromartie in a hotel in Tokyo when he was leading his team to win the Japan series……

We couldn't buy a AA pitcher for $2 million? Really?

I snubbed Russell Crowe once? Does that count?

Shame you didn’t say “way to hack at pitches from a proven ball thrower” – but sometimes the best lines come to us later.

Heh...... snubbing Crowe must have been sweet......

I didn’t snub Cro…. His mom was in Japan and saw me wearing an Expos cap and insisted I go up and talk to him. He was a little before my time, but was a great guy, and only found out later he was leading the league in everything and a big star there…
