I've been listening to the news, apparently it's been a tad crowded down there since noon, they said both garages at the park were full by 2pm. That wouldn't be bad if metro was worth a shit, but..


Was it Fake News?

Two on, 1 out in the third. Wish it were two outs!  :P

ETA
There we go. Now two outs. Time for some runs.

I've never seen Sanchez be visibly upset with an ump before

That was maybe the worst pitch call I've seen.

Lucky bounce for Astros on Cabrera's hit. Should have scored a run.

That four throwing errors on the Nats, two bad ones by Suzuki. Not their usual night.

well that sucked, but, I didn't expect another sweep. Nationals can still close the deal at home.


Houston wins 4-1, Nationals lead series 2-1

Game 4:

starting lineups:
Astros: The only big question was whether Hinch chose to put designated hitter Yordan Alvarez in the lineup in left field, which was unlikely considering Houston is facing a lefty. It’s likely Alvarez will start Game 5 on Sunday night. Other than that, Jake Marisnick got the start over Josh Reddick while facing a lefty.
1) George Springer, RF

2) José Altuve, 2B

3) Michael Brantley, LF

4) Alex Bregman, 3B

5) Yuli Gurriel, 1B

6) Carlos Correa, SS

7) Robinson Chirinos, C

8- Jake Marisnick, CF

9) Jose Urquidy, P


Nationals:
After cashing in with runners in scoring position at seemingly every chance during the first two games, the Nats’ bats went cold in Game 3, going 0-for-10 with RISP while stranding 12 runners on base. They are hoping for better fortune in Game 4.
1) Trea Turner, SS

2) Adam Eaton, RF

3) Anthony Rendon, 3B

4) Juan Soto, LF

5) Howie Kendrick, 2B

6) Ryan Zimmerman, 1B

7) Victor Robles, CF

8- Yan Gomes, C

9) Patrick Corbin, P


starting pitchers:
Astros:
Urquidy (0-0, 2.08 ERA in the playoffs) will make his first career playoff start to kick off Houston’s bullpen game. Urquidy, who started seven games in the regular season, worked 1 2/3 innings of scoreless relief in Game 4 of the American League Division Series against the Rays and 2 2/3 innings of one-run ball in Game 6 of the AL Championship Series against the Yankees.
Nationals:
Corbin (1-2, 6.91 ERA) signed with the Nats in the offseason with games like this in mind, looking to help his team take a commanding lead in the World Series. Corbin has spent more time pitching in relief than as a starter this month, but in the three days after a scoreless 21-pitch sixth inning in Game 1, he has been able to get back to his normal routine.

I mean't to post this before the game.
Corbin's ERA is not a pretty sight.
I did not feel good about him starting this game.
