They played very well, overall, coming back several times, excellent defense, incredible starting pitching by Class A Lanahan (!); and truly an unrivaled bullpen. Yes, unrivaled, in light of the heralded Boston bullpen's melt-down in crab-town. <BR/><BR/>There is a genuine "Nationals-ball" mentality led by the Napoleonic-bearing manager and his field general Zimmerman. Even Lopez is catching on to it, and giving it his all. This team is among the toughest for ANTONE to play, witness the hottest team in baseball almost dropping two, had Dmitri Young been in the line-up.<BR/><BR/>Think about that: Webb was actually hittable in the early innings of a magnificient performance, and Young may have changed the pitching dynamic.<BR/><BR/>Let's get some great crowd support for this homestand, and cheer for the youngest pitching staff and some clutch hitters at RFK for the coutdown. 81 wins for 2007 is not completely out of the realm, and I think that Acta is definitely shooting for it.<BR/><BR/>Trust in Kasten. All Good.SenatorNathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10049860385485455410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-68657244961553313952007-08-13T11:53:00.000-04:002007-08-13T11:53:00.000-04:00SBF- Your post are better than newspaper columnsSBF- <BR/>Your post are better than newspaper columnsBrandonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00462777724350789672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-73755268678400937752007-08-13T11:04:00.000-04:002007-08-13T11:04:00.000-04:00The Nationals are really, really looking impressiv...The Nationals are really, really looking impressive these days.<BR/><BR/>They are playing together and with energy in more games than not, and going into a new stadium next year, that's something home fans can appreciate.Jarretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05055106710456679987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-80518409360450690772007-08-13T00:12:00.000-04:002007-08-13T00:12:00.000-04:00Hey there,Love the blog.
