• How Long Can DC's Nationals Hold Out...
The first Washington-based baseball team of the so-called modern era of baseball to lose over 100 games was the 1904 Washington Senators. The '04 Senators suffered their 99th loss in the 131st game of the season, and quickly dropped the 100th the next night in the first of a four-game series with the New York Highlanders in Washington Heights' Manhattan's Hilltop Park. The 1909 Senators dropped #99 to the Boston Red Sox, then held out for two games, winning the second of three from the Sox and the first of three against the St. Louis Brown before reaching double-digits in losses in game 136.
40 years later, the 1949 Washington Senators held out for two games before hitting 100, losing the 99th to the St. Louis Browns in game 144 before losing their 100th to Yogi Berra, Phil Rizzuto and the '49 Yankees. The '55 Sens dropped 99 and 100 in back to back games against the Baltimore Orioles. The 1961 Senators, awarded to DC after the Twins were born, lasted two games with 99 losses before losing the final game of the season to the Kansas City Athletics to finish 61-100 and the '62 Senators dropped 99 and 100 in back-to-back games to the Yankees. In 1963, the KC Athletics and the Baltimore Orioles handed Washington their 99th and 100th L's in games 152 and 153, and before the '08 Washington Nationals dropped 100+ games, the last DC baseball team to do so was the '64 Senators, who went to 62-99 in the next to last game of the season against the Boston Red Sox, who beat the Sens again the next night to make it a clean one hundred L's.
The '08 Nationals lost #99 in game 158 against the Marlins and then dropped the hundredth the next night in Philadelphia...How long can the '09 Nationals hold out? They got #1 last night, a win tonight ties the DC Baseball record...after that, they'll set the record for staving off triple-digit embarrassment...

Padilla (the pitcher) wears Fop
Pomade Vendor: I can get the part from Bristol. It’ll take two weeks, here’s your pomade.
Ulysses Everett McGill: Two weeks? That don’t do me no good.
Pomade Vendor: Nearest Ford auto man’s Bristol.
Ulysses Everett McGill: Hold on, I don’t want this pomade. I want Dapper Dan.
Pomade Vendor: I don’t carry Dapper Dan, I carry Fop.
Ulysses Everett McGill: Well, I don’t want Fop, (gosh darn) it! I’m a Dapper Dan man!
Pomade Vendor: Watch your language, young feller, this is a public market. Now if you want Dapper Dan, I can order it for you, have it in a couple of weeks.
Ulysses Everett McGill: Well, ain’t this place a geographical oddity. Two weeks from everywhere!

AccuRoscoe forecast...
Warm and muffy. 10% chance of rain to start the game and up to a 30% chance in the last part of the game. Little stuff will pop up here and there. I predict 9 innings of great baseball tonight.
Dodgers are well over .500 in rubber games of 3 game series on the road.

No way, he signed Mrs. Doghouse's Anti-Jinxing Lance Berkmann Upper-Deck RFK Home Run Ball today.
No way the whammy can get past all that mojo. It’s got Nook Logan and Ryan Church and Matt LeCroy on there to distract all the jinxes.

Maybe the Nats can win all their games until the end of the season...
and keep the losses at 99. Yeah, I know, that’s not likely to happen. But hey, since this incarnation of a Washington,DC major league team hasn’t been around for seventeen years, the Pirates are still the team with the most under 500 seasons in a row. Hold your heads up with pride, the Nats aren’t there.
By the way, I read the game recap for last night’s game. What a game! I’ve have to take a look at the condensed game on the MLB at Bat.
Go get the Dodgers again tonight!

let the fat little little shortstop with the sore shoulder, bad feet, diminishing range, hollow batting average and atrocious OBP sit out the rest of the season and play desmond.

I was a little ahead of myself....
"If he strikes out four times, it is known as a golden sombrero. He receives a platinum sombrero if he strikes out 5 times, also known as the Olympic Rings.
…while a horn (after Sam Horn of the Baltimore Orioles, who accomplished the feat in an extra-inning game in 1991) or titanium sombrero is bestowed upon a player who strikes out six times in a single game.
