Yeah...it's finally here. Let's finally do it for once. Make it happen, Kersh! Square it up boyos! Beautiful day here, so far anyway...cool and the sun feels good. DC is about 250 miles away, so clear sailing. But I don't know about this hurricane Matthew and what it will mean tomorrow as it heads north.
Can't decide if I should DVR or just follow the first hour on phone and radio. I hate not knowing what's going on when it's happening. ugh choices screw whoever makes the schedule
Really hope he keeps his pitch count down. The obvious plan is for him to go 7-8 and Jansen the rest of the way, but way too many of his postseason failures of past years were because he was at 110-120 pitches and we had no other trustworthy options.
theres some talk that Dodgers might have to move around their rotation for Game 2 cause of the possibility of rain delays... it would make sense considering Hill's issues not to mention, it might be better to start Urias on a "bullpen" type game with multiple delays since you aren't anticipating getting much out of Urias anyways. who knows
I hope he's able to finish innings... It hurts when he has to leave mid-inning and in comes Pedro Baez
By the way, Nats announced Gio will go Game 3 and not Game 2. Roark is a much better pitcher but Gio Gonzalez throws with his left hand so... Maybe it's better we get Gio at home. But, lots of talk about Game 2 and 3 lets fucking win game 1
Yeah,that's right...game ONE, front and center! I wonder if Obo will throw out the first pitch...or go to FL...or golf ?
I'm sorry to those of you who can't watch today but I feel rather blessed: I have the day off from work, girlfriend bought me a bottle of Jameson, girlfriends brother got me a 12 pack of assorted beers, I have a couple pounds of carne asada.... I'm ready to watch baseball all day.
Win Game 1. Just win it. I'm sick of going in with high hopes with Kershaw on the mound and coming out 0-1, and then have to cross your fingers to even it up the next game, only to lose game 3 and go back to a shakey Kershaw in game 4 and losing it. Win Game 1. Then we can talk.
