They get 5 innings out of Font they'll be happy. Good that Noah went 8 strong last night.

This mlb.tv blackout is starting to get old.

Striking out the side against the Mets in order isn't really special and new, either.

My 1st look at Font. Big guy, cool lookto his delivery but you can't be walking the first guy

Damn I thought Davis tied it up there

Wilmer is making me cry this time.

Fooling Nobody Today.

Lefty Specialist May 15 2019 06:04 PM Re: IGT 05/15 - NYM at WAS - Not Like Everybody Else

So I'm beginning to think that Wilmer Font is not the answer here.

LWFS May 15 2019 06:04 PM Re: IGT 05/15 - NYM at WAS - Not Like Everybody Else

Font is Comic Sans. It's like an Italian food festival with this guy-- endless meatballs on plates.

You don't suppose his wife's name is Arial, do you?

Gagnon has been all Times New Roman since coming in. All for naught, though, unless we put some runs on these Wingdings.

LWFS May 15 2019 06:42 PM Re: IGT 05/15 - NYM at WAS - Not Like Everybody Else

He's leaving more over the plate this inning. To the meat of the Nat lineup, no less. Good pitch to get Kendrick out, though.

Edgy MD May 15 2019 07:12 PM Re: IGT 05/15 - NYM at WAS - Not Like Everybody Else

Todd Frazier is not like everybody else.

kcmets May 15 2019 07:17 PM Re: IGT 05/15 - NYM at WAS - Not Like Everybody Else

I like me a quick game now and then but this Cy Corbin dude is redic'.

Frayed Knot May 15 2019 07:27 PM Re: IGT 05/15 - NYM at WAS - Not Like Everybody Else

Well, this was the one game in the series where the pitching matchup was decidedly NOT in our favor. Would have been nice if we could have kept it a bit more competitive though. I do like the fact that the Nats feel compelled to go to their closer -- and, really, their one reliable arm out in the pen -- in a four run game in front of a quick turnaround leading into a day game. Bring it on Doolittle!

Fman99 May 15 2019 07:28 PM Re: IGT 05/15 - NYM at WAS - Not Like Everybody Else

Was hoping to get one of the bullpen dirtbags here in the 9th.

Fman99 May 15 2019 07:35 PM Re: IGT 05/15 - NYM at WAS - Not Like Everybody Else

That was pretty terrible. At least Familia looked good.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 15 2019 07:51 PM Re: IGT 05/15 - NYM at WAS - Not Like Everybody Else

Game ended when McNeil didn't score on the Davis double.

LWFS May 15 2019 08:05 PM Re: IGT 05/15 - NYM at WAS - Not Like Everybody Else

Hey-- now we've got the rest of our night for activities!

Johnny Lunchbucket wrote: Game ended when McNeil didn't score on the Davis double. Yeah, the bullpen did as much as they could to bail out Font. I put this loss on the offense. McNeil, as confident as he is at the plate with his goofy bat, seems a little out of his depth on the basepaths, which is funny because he's there often enough. I feel like I was writing that same statement, more or less, about Daniel Murphy 10 years ago.
