[HopeSpringsEternal]

I think he already flunked the test.

Like the end of the school year - not studying too hard right now.

[LoneStarPhan]

Hoffman fails big time today. At least Wheelerq was good today.

We don’t know what will happen in the post season. Could be WS champs or out in first series played.

I do know they are not looking good in the final two weeks of the season.

[Austinfan]

Hoffman may have suffered from "lack of urgency," or why some closers get knocked around when they come in with a big lead.

[zambonir]

We don’t know what will happen in the post season. Could be WS champs or out in first series played.

Which has been true for the other 160 days too.

[kikutaro]

Nick Castellanos

Pitching Change: Kyle Finnegan replaces Jose A. Ferrer.
Foul (96.4 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (85.4 mph slider)
In play, no out (97. mph four-seam fastball)

Nick Castellanos triples (4) on a sharp line drive to center fielder Jacob Young.

[zambonir]

He ain't the closer

I truly do hate that excuse, which is why it's so nice to have a team that doesn't believe in closers. Except we don't anymore.

[kikutaro]

Alec Bohm

Foul (98.1 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (98. mph four-seam fastball)
In play, run(s) (87.6 mph splitter)

Alec Bohm grounds out, shortstop Nasim Nuñez to first baseman Joey Gallo. Nick Castellanos scores.

Washington Nationals 6 - Philadelphia Phillies 3

[zambonir]

I wouldn't say a 2-2 game with two rounds of home field on the line in the 8th inning is non-urgent either. Completely different than hitting early in the game or Wheeler not needing to be perfect (and he was still good enough).

[LoneStarPhan]

We don’t know what will happen in the post season. Could be WS champs or out in first series played.

Which has been true for the other 160 days too.

That’s baseball.

Swinging strike (89.6 mph splitter)

[zambonir]

Well, that's baseball in 2024 or maybe since 1994 at least.

Now it gets interesting. I hope the Dodgers lose and they still have to show out tomorrow. I really don't think there's any harm in doing so. They were never gonna skip Nola. And if Sosa and Stubbs and Clemens play tomorrow that doesn't mean they can't compete. Hays surely needs to play too and Rojas didn't play today.

[zambonir]

Oops, Dodgers have clinched. But WS home field still an option.

[Philsmania]

This team will be dead meat in the NLDS.

[zambonir]

Who hurt you Philsmania? (Oh right: the Phillies.)

[bkox]

Hays surely needs to play too

Hays was out today with back issues.. which hopefully isnt from the kidney. So have a feeling he wont be in there tomorrow
