    There was also a play at the plate in which he was out but the Cubs had no challenges left!! It tied the game at 3. Let's recap Giants protest and win which is VERY unusual. They get ton of days off and we play 20 straight. Because Buster gets hurt in a collision at the plate we have this crap rule. The only this missing is a veto of a trade for a superstar that we try and acquire by the new commissioner. Lol.

    Each team gets the same # of days off in a season. Can't be bitching about that.

    After last night, Turner has a 3.2 WAR, ahead of the likes of Freddie Freeman, Buster Posey, David Wright, and every Dodger position player besides Puig.

    I get it Chief but it seems to me at least that the days off seem to favor the Giants. We have had games the next day after travelling a long distance while they seem to get those days off in those situations. Maybe it's just me. I wonder if there is a statistic on miles travelled by each team.

    Manny Machado out for season
    Updated: August 22, 2014, 7:21 PM ET
    ESPN.com news services

    CHICAGO -- Baltimore Orioles third baseman Manny Machado, who would have been eligible to return from the disabled list on Wednesday, is instead expected to have knee surgery within the week and miss the rest of the season, a source confirmed to ESPN.com's Jerry Crasnick.

    Yahoo! Sports was first to report news of the surgery Friday.

    "I'll probably try to bring some clarity into that situation and gather what he's being told as far as when baseball activity would start and all that stuff, I'll try to clear that up for you, probably tomorrow, give you a more definitive idea," Orioles manager Buck Showalter told Comcast SportsNet before Friday's 4-1 loss to the Chicago Cubs.

    Reports of the surgery surfaced following the game.

    Machado sprained his right knee while taking a swing against the Yankees on Aug. 11. He dropped in a heap in the batter's box and limped off the field, assisted by his manager and trainer.

    The 2013 Gold Glove winner is hitting .278 with 12 homers and 32 RBIs in 82 games. He missed the first month of the season while recovering from surgery on his left knee.

    The AL East-leading Orioles are 73-53 this season.

    Tough loss for the Orioles. They're running away with the AL East but I don't see one guy in their rotation i'd trust in game 1 or 2 of a playoff series.

    Doug Fister starting tonight for the Nationals. He is 12-3 with a 2.16 ERA this season and I do not think I have heard his name once all season. Talk about flying under the radar...damn

    ^He missed 6 weeks so that may have been a factor but yeah that guy has been amazing. Can't believe this is Fisters 3rd team, 44 - 23 the last 4 years, he's found it. Tigers fucked that trade up.

    Mike Trout playing himself out of the MVP race?????????? He WAS odds on favorite from what I kept hearing but now may be a 2nd to Abreu.

    http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/split.cgi?id=troutmi01&year=&t=b

    Breaking out my Beavis and Butthead reference inspired by the Gnats vs Nats which is funny by itself but Fister is from the bay area, so many ways to go with that!!!!!!!! Huh huh huh his name is Fister and he's from near San Francisco.

    Of course the Nats win 10 in a row but can't beat the Giants.
