I once partied all night, drove to Wrigley, waited in line for bleacher tickets for a doubleheader and passed out in the second game; don’t ask me who they played....

Single A The Locals
Craig Edwards
10:16
that is a really good team name idea.
Tony Wolfe

Tough evening for Cabrera, huh
tommytoms
10:18
who would be the inter-nationals then?
Craig Edwards
10:18
probably the rival of the AC-nationals.

Hey did you know Zimmerman was the Nationals first ever draft pick?
Craig Edwards
10:18
but who was the second?
10:20
It was either Justin Maxwell or Frank Stallone.
10:21
the Nationals lost their second and third round picks that year so they could sign Vinny Castilla and Cristian Guzman.

Do we know why Trout wasn't able to attend tonight?
Craig Edwards
10:25
The Angels haven't put a decent team around him.
more like Gurrifoul

Craig angling for a job as a late night host?
Craig Edwards
10:26
Angling? What am I? A fisherman?

People complain about Buck and Smoltz too much. I'd prefer something along the lines of Benetti and Cone, but all in all they aren't that bad.
hey
10:27
I like when umpires throw the ball back to the pitcher. I don’t know why
Geoff
10:27
I'd prefer Laurel and Hardy, but I'll take Buck and Smoltz
CTBNL
10:28
this umpire crew has been great, but is the HP ump a little too in to his ability to throw hard to the pitcher?
Jordan
10:28
It’d be better if Smoltz liked baseball though
AvatarDavid Laurila
10:28
Pretty sure Smoltz likes baseball, it's just that we don't all like baseball in exactly the same ways.
Craig Edwards
10:29
I do wonder if Smoltz got better if anybody would notice or if they would just rely on prior impression.

Yuli turning on that inside pitch again!
Craig Edwards
10:32
I did some research. Trout appears to have some network connectivity issues.
Nick
10:33
Do the intentional walk articles just write themselves at Fangraphs now?
Jordan
10:33
Smoltz is better then Buck Martinez, this is who we get in Canada
Craig Edwards
10:33
Oh no. We still have to write them. Article writing themselves is big myth in the industry. Believe me, I've tried.

This is probably the big moment of this game.

I actually like Buck Martinez as a broadcaster.

The emotion on Strasburg's face, and the roaring crowd, is evidence that baseball is cool and the World Series matters.

It was interesting in one of the FG pieces to read the IBBs are a sounder strategy for underdog teams because of increased variance
AvatarDavid Laurila

Speaking of crowds, I was at Nationals Park for the NLCS and the place was electric. It's going o be a madhouse for Games 3-5.
