Game 157: Enjoy 2B next year, Guz...

by Doghouse on Sep 29, 2009 10:27 PM EDT

Yaaaay! Luis Castillo misses first base, allowing Ian Desmond (+0.377) to beat out the back end of a DP and drive in the go-ahead run (+0.247)
Yaaaaaaay! Tyler Clippard (+0.200) gets out of a bases-loaded jam with a line-out DP to Alberto Gonzalez (-0.072)
Booooo! Adam Dunn (-0.151) o-fers, in spite of the two guys in donkey costumes and Dunn jerseys who were there to cheer him on (I think)
Her0! Dezzie, the one-and-only shortstop of the Nats, now and for the future. 2-4 with a 2B, HR, and the game-winning ROE

Good game, I gotta say. J.D. Martin (-0.024) actually impressed me by getting out of his bases-loaded, no-out jam in the first with only a single walked-in run. Even Mike MacDougal (+0.168) managed not to make it "interesting," although Elijah Dukes (-0.010) had to work a little harder than I'd have liked to track down the last out (but he did it!).

I heard the Nats beat the Mets...

during the scoreboad roundup on the Cubs broadcast. Always nice to hear the Mets get a lose. Go Nats! Go for the sweep!

IDIMH!

Nuff said.

Padilla walked into the Nats' clubhouse for the first time and said, "My God. I'm in heaven."
