“Rodney is known for wearing his cap tilted at an angle toward the left side of his head. He said in 2016 that it came about as a tribute to his father, who was a fisherman. Ulise Rodney also wore his cap tilted to the side because that was the side the sun hit his face. Rodney also said the tilted cap could be confusing for both hitters and baserunners. "The hitter looks for your eyes. It's like a dog. When you go somewhere, the first thing (a dog) looks at is your eyes and how you move."”

Okay, I can respect that. The dad part. I'm cool with that.

But....It should have become apparent to him that he's not facing dogs....and it is certainly NOT confusing ANY hitter based on his record of performance and ERA

Does it bother anyone else that Rodney can't wear his hat properly? I know I'm old school and I'm sure their is some reason for it, but it looks silly. Is he a gangsta?

Maybe he could wear his jersey inside out, and then nobody would know who he really is and the Nats could then disguise him as an actual relief pitcher.

LMFAO!!
Got a good, post weekend chuckle out of that post!
That and the Redskins highlights from Sunday’s game😅😂
Thanks Rich!

Early game tonight, first pitch at 6:40. needless to say, tonight is a must win, anticipated lineups....

1. Joc Pederson (L) RF
2. Max Muncy (L) 1B
3. Justin Turner (R) 3B
4. Cody Bellinger (L) CF
5. Corey Seager (L) SS
6. Matt Beaty (L) LF
7. Gavin Lux (L) 2B
8. Will Smith (R) C
9. Rich Hill (L) P

The Nationals will be without Víctor Robles once again due to his balky hamstring. He is expected to be able to pinch hit if necessary, however. Michael A. Taylor will cover center field and Ryan Zimmerman gets a start at first base:
1. Trea Turner (R) SS
2. Adam Eaton (L) RF
3. Anthony Rendon (R) 3B
4. Juan Soto (L) LF
5. Howie Kendrick (R) 2B
6. Ryan Zimmerman (R) 1B
7. Kurt Suzuki (R) C
8. Michael A. Taylor (R) CF
9. Max Scherzer (R) P

as we’ve seen with the Caps, the fat hasn’t sung until the last possible moment, and I’d bet good money that a bunch of 10 year olds can not do better. There is a reason the average age of a pro team is almost 30, and there is a reason this is a best of 5

Let's hope Mad Max brings his A game. And the rest of the team brings it bats.

GO NATS!

Nats are looking more like an MLB team. That's how you manufacture runs. Thank goodness for Sherzer having a good night so far.

Fucking bullshit sending the runner back to second. "STUCK", MY ASS!

MLB refs as fucked up as NHL.

Pretty well played game by the Nats.

On to Game 5!

richkrt99 · « **Reply #76 on:** Tuesday October 08, 2019, 12:44:28 AM Eastern »

That was more like it. Watched on about 2 hour delay so just finished.
Nats stars were stars so they win
Turner, Rendon, Zimm, Sherzer all played well and did what was needed

Sherzer sure has compete in his DNA

They do like to make it exciting loading the bases and whatnot.

So maybe Stras can have his best game of the year on Wednesday

Go Nats

NLDS game 5 today, both of them. Cards at Braves at 5:02 and the important game at 8:37 in LaLa land. The Braves were the best team in the NL this year, but they haven't looked any better than the Nats in the post season.

anticipated lineups:
Nationals
SS Trea Turner
RF Adam Eaton
3B Anthony Rendon
LF Juan Soto
1B Ryan Zimmerman
2B Howie Kendrick
C Kurt Suzuki
CF Michael A Taylor
P Stephen Strasburg

Dodgers
RF Joc Pederson
1B Max Muncy
3B Justin Turner
CF Cody Bellinger
SS Corey Seager
LF Matt Beaty
2B Gavin Lux
C Will Smith
P Walker Buehler

Go get them NATS!

I won't be home till about 9:30 so in today's baseball speed I'll miss......
maybe the first inning

I hope they win this. Some of these Nats deserve a playoff break, I think.
Zim, Stras, Rendon to name a few. I'm not knocking any of the others, just saying Zim especially spending his whole career here.....would be nice to get somewhere this year.
I remember them sitting Stras YEARS ago to save his arm/career. I wonder how he feels about that now....never really having playoff success.

Anyway, GO NATS

Braves management attempted to get rid of the chop and angered the baseball gods
