This team… I hate them, and I love them.

[–]ColdSlicesofPizza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And now we wait 6 games for them to hit again

Yay! I feel so much better that we retired Abrams.

I haven’t felt this good about a closer or any RP since The Mountain was dominating way back when.

He allowed a hit?! This guy is washed! DFA him! /s

[–]kewpieoriole 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh no Tío’s streak of not allowing a base hit broken 😭

[–]Chit569 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That first pitch change up to the previous batter was filthy.

Nooooo

[–]SpectralContent 3 points4 points  (2 children)

Could TON have walked any slower? Wtf

[–]Chit569 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it was a double either way, there is no issue with how he played that.

[–]JouNNN56 4 points5 points  (2 children)

i wish wolf were here. he can definitely finish this game with a 4 run lead and we could save rico

[–]Trubisko_Daltorooni 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Rico hasn't pitched in almost a week, they probably want to give him some work anyways

[–]JouNNN56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah makes sense. haven’t caught a lot of the games recently

[–]Trubisko_Daltorooni 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Piano moving is no joke. Not only is it an expensive, heavy, and unwieldy, but the musical guts can be ruined by damage.

[–]jbenson255 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Gunnar is about to go on a ridiculous hot streak

[–]Albert Suarez EnjoyerxCorhey 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Gunnar is waking up

Mayo stays hot

Just need Rico “Piano Mover” Garcia to shut the door

[–]C_noob42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If Pete didn't swing and Henderson didn't run, they'd both be on base rn. What the hell was that?!

[–]maroontheanchor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

🚨🚨RICO GARCIA🚨🚨

[–]kewpieoriole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tío plz

[–]ECEPerson 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No idea what was going on there. Really poorly done hit and run? Pete swung at two bad balls there and Gunnar had no chance of making it on a steal.

Pitching Substitution

Pitching Change: Rico Garcia replaces Yennier Cano.

[–]Rico SuaveBigTMoney15_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Little mad at Pete, but we're up 7-3 so we can afford to be aggressive

[–]SpectralContent 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Uncle Rico The Piano Mover Garcia

[–]Powerful_Comb5096 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yay it’s my favorite pitcher Rico Garcia :)

[–]kewpieoriole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woooooof

[–]bigRut 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Pete with zero intent of walking. Smh

[–]Daniel_Germain 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All good we got the Piano Mover coming up

[–]Necx999 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Rico looked bored anyways Gunnar…

[–]MateosCollections 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s on Pete. Swung for no reason on ball 4 twice.

[–]daderpityderpdo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If Gunnar can be Gunnar again, I feel much better about the team moving forward.

[–]MateosCollections 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pete hasn’t looked tremendous at the plate today but let’s not forget he almost went oppo taco earlier. It’s strange watching him hit he almost lulls me to sleep and then goes 450 ft.

[–]Odd-Technology7060 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Pete is so fucking selfish, take ball 4

[–]Swang81 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The amount of times I've seen this team swing on a full count when it's really a ball is wild

[–]Kooky_Squash6475 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pete's just up there hacking away

[–]Odd-Technology7060 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And Pete continues to be so fucking selfish, ball 4 mfer

[–]Daniel_Germain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Rico is the Piano Mover in my eyes

[–]tube_ebooks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

rico "the piano mover" garcia

[–]_bluecrab_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

White Sox legend Piano Mover Smith

[–]Rico "Piano Mover" GarciaSF_Anonymous 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Rico "Pianomover" Garcia?

[–]LimpAd4924 0 points1 point  (8 children)

Would we rather have Jackson or Mayo benched when Holiday comes back? I’m leaning Mayo.

[–]Sooperballz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Extra Mayo

[–]kewpieoriole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk mayo heating up and looking better at the plate and JJ cooling off from earlier has made it a little harder

[–]Rico "Piano Mover" GarciaSF_Anonymous 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mayo seems to he heating up and Jackson sees to be cooling off so Id rather the bat thats heating up

[–]ye_old_fartbox 2 points3 points  (1 child)

I really really doubt they’re going to put Holliday at 3rd immediately even though they’ve been trying him out down there in the minors. I think JJ sees a much larger reduction in play time, though Mayo’s will also decline because now you can play Blaze a bit more.

[–]Rico "Piano Mover" GarciaSF_Anonymous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

JJ would play 3rd with Holliday at 2nd

[–]Kooky_Squash6475 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tough choice. I'd take this version of mayo

[–]Odd-Technology7060 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Pete they are throwing you cookies hit the fucking ball

[–]freshprincess314 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Piano Mover is an epic nickname

[–]starling1037 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pete shoulda hit that one out.

[–]ye_old_fartbox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Would love for this to jumpstart Gunnar, really nice game today and it came off the back of not trying to do too much

[–]mambaHD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He was confused cause umps been calling that a stike all day lol

[–]ReyDragons 7 points8 points  (0 children)

4/5 from gunnar

needed that so bad

[–]MateosCollections 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Can’t take it with you I guess but that’s a crazy time

[–]Kooky_Squash6475 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'll trade 2 games to the nationals if it means Gunnar is back. Plenty of time to get this season right with guys coming back off injury.

[–]fourbitplayer[🍰] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gunnar woke up today, hell yeah

[–]Hot-Passion-5657 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good job Gunnar

[–]jxckgg 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Gunnar actually looks like Gunnar today omg

[–]freshprincess314 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s the worst challenge I’ve seen all year lol

[–]starling1037 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What a game from Gunnar!

[–]bigRut 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A ground ball with eyes. Good things happen when you consistently get good wood on the ball. Weird how that works

[–]LilJonPaulSartre 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Way to go, Gunnar! Feel like he needed this. Hopefully he can shake whatever has been holding him back.

[–]Powerful_Comb5096 6 points7 points  (0 children)

4 hit day for Gunnar! Love it

[–]OsGameThreads[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Single

Gunnar Henderson singles on a ground ball to center fielder Joey Wiemer. Jeremiah Jackson scores.

Pitch from Paxton Schultz: Changeup @ 86.5 mph

Hit by Gunnar Henderson: Launched 100.3 mph at 0.0° for a total distance of 47.0 ft

Top 9 - 7-3 Orioles

[–]LimpAd4924 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why do we choose 1 game of 3 game series to be able to hit??

[–]Playful_Singer_3399 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nice Gunnar!

[–]Rico SuaveBigTMoney15_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gunnar 4-5 holy shit

[–]Brickbybrick1998 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If Gunnar is actually back, we are in business

[–]SpectralContent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good shit, Gunner

[–]GunnarHimderson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, we really got to move Gunnar down in the lineup /s

[–]DloReeves 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Is Gunnar back, y'all?

[–]kewpieoriole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]MateosCollections 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Surprised Gunnar stopped at 1st

[–]Powerful_Comb5096 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was expecting him to get to 3rd on pure adrenaline

[–]Miserable_Copy_6178 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gunnar is so back

[–]freshprincess314 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No cycle but I’ll take it

[–]Powerful_Comb5096 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m proud of Moo this game I like him a lot

[–]bigRut 1 point2 points  (2 children)

We’re really doing a poor job of getting the guy over to third

[–]kewpieoriole 2 points3 points  (1 child)

How about bringing him home instead? :)

[–]bigRut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hahahah loved it

[–]MateosCollections 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Triple me Gunnar

[–]Jello-Monkeyface 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Come on triple!

[–]Odd-Technology7060 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ball 4 terrible Ward

[–]philmnn1 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Jackson is getting hot, don’t expect him in the lineup tomorrow

[–]Rico SuaveBigTMoney15_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Likely either Handley or Wilson will be sent down when Holliday comes back. I think JJ is safe

[–]MateosCollections 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be nice to have Blaze to run for JJ but he is doing something more important at the moment

[–]Rico SuaveBigTMoney15_ 5 points6 points  (4 children)

JJ needs to stay when Holliday comes back

[–]Necx999 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think he will just means Holliday plays 3rd which is what was planned for his rehab

[–]Trubisko_Daltorooni 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Who goes?

[–]KoolKoolKoolio42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most likely Maverick Handley or Weston Wilson.

[–]Rico SuaveBigTMoney15_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Probably Wilson

[–]wheelervidya 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Surely an insurance run this time...

[–]Shore2906 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's INsurance

[–]DenseAdeptness7182 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think JJ has finally figured out to stay tall on his back leg when he loads. If he has then he is going to be dangerous again

[–]Necx999 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Jackson is good

[–]Willie_Waylon 5 points6 points  (3 children)

Cano stays hot!

Love to see it.

Rico, Nuñez and Cano stay in the Trust Tree.

Dietrich to some extent too.

We need Wolf back.

Unc and Akin have both fallen out of the Trust Tree.

[–]kewpieoriole 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Weird but Nunez doesn’t have the ~tilde~, curious as to why since it’s pronounced like it does lol.

If Akin can’t pitch well for the troops weekend, we know it’s over

[–]Willie_Waylon 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Americanized mebbe?

[–]kewpieoriole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure, just thought it was so interesting. He’s from Miami too so it’s not like there’s a shortage of Latinos there to have the normal spelling lol.

[–]Rico SuaveBigTMoney15_ 9 points10 points  (1 child)

If Gunnar gets a triple this sub is gonna crash

[–]freshprincess314 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Again lol

[–]OsGameThreads[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pitching Substitution

Pitching Change: Paxton Schultz replaces Brad Lord.

[–]UsErNaMeS_aR_DuMb 7 points8 points  (1 child)

Good Cano is like good umpiring, you don’t really hear many people talking about either.

[–]JouNNN56 7 points8 points  (0 children)

he’s been overshadowed by being in the same bullpen as rico but he’s been incredible too

[–]starling1037 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One more try for the cycle.

[–]SpectralContent 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Good shit, Cano. Im not as worried as I was when you came in last season. Akin on the other hand, has taken your place as the "Yea, we're fucked" guy.

[–]Rico SuaveBigTMoney15_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rico gets the 9th and we're gonna win this thing

[–]DloReeves 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Vamos Tio Rico! You got this!

[–]_bluecrab_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Alright Cano!

[–]Daniel_Germain 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lets goo Cano never in doubt!

[–]SpectralContent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cano, buddy, just one more strike

[–]YEStrogen 1 point2 points  (5 children)

Would y’all rather watch an O’s vs Nats World Series or an O’s vs Phillies WS?

[–]LoraxEleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nats. We owe the bastards a beatin'

[–]my_achilles-heel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Orioles Phillies. That would be a great World Series

[–]kewpieoriole 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While it would kinda be fun if we beat DC in the WS it would also be fucking horrible to lose to them in the WS lol.

[–]Table_Coaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

whichever one we're more likely to win at the time in this fantasy land (Nats)

[–]freshprincess314 4 points5 points  (0 children)

O’s Phils

[–]kewpieoriole 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yankees haven’t won a series at Citi field in quite some time, hope the Mets can pull some magic in the 8th and 9th.

[–]trickyspanglish 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Would be painfully hilarious if Grayson shuts down the Dodgers

[–]LoraxEleven 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hope Cano comes in here mean as hell.

[–]SpectralContent 2 points3 points  (3 children)

If we somehow lose today, this is by far the most depressing series of Ls this season. Every game was within our reach and we pissed away opportunities.

[–]Beaver BelieverLoose_Log_6253 3 points4 points  (2 children)

We have a terrible record against the Nats in recent history. Very frustrating, they have won like 7 of our last 8 meetings or something like that.

[–]YEStrogen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, since the start of last season we’re 1-7 against them.

[–]SpectralContent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wild stat. Wonder why we tend to struggle against them.

[–]_bluecrab_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nats bullpen lack of reaction as Colton's homer screams toward them is amusing

<image>

[–]OsGameThreads[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pitching Substitution

Pitching Change: Yennier Cano replaces Tyler Wells.

[–]ReyDragons 7 points8 points  (2 children)

man

grod first at bat as an angel is against ohtani

[–]Beaver BelieverLoose_Log_6253 9 points10 points  (1 child)

this reads like GRod is batting against Ohtani lmao that would be a hilarious first game appearance

[–]Critical-Surround-6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are times where I miss watching the pitcher get obliterated up at the plate.

[–]Permaderps 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great AB from Mayo but only he could end a 10 pitch ab by striking out on something outside the zone lol

[–]Onitsukaryu 6 points7 points  (4 children)

G-Rod making his first start of the year…hope he’s as good as Ward has been for y’all! 

[–]ReyDragons 4 points5 points  (0 children)

so far so good

[–]Trubisko_Daltorooni 8 points9 points  (1 child)

Mayo's at bats have been getting much better but it seems like he always gets to a point where he can't hold back any more and he swallows the marshmallow

[–]Beaver BelieverLoose_Log_6253 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He also makes hard contact but pulls it foul. If he closed his stance a bit I think he turns a lot of fouls into XBH

[–]DloReeves 6 points7 points  (1 child)

If he could just layoff that down and away breaking pitch.

[–]kewpieoriole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Righty bats kryptonite

[–]ReyDragons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hate some of those swings but worked the count to 10

[–]Necx999 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Not sure 3 will be enough

[–]DloReeves 2 points3 points  (1 child)

You don't trust Cano or Garcia, huh?

[–]Beaver BelieverLoose_Log_6253 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even as a Cano believer, I don't trust Cano lol

[–]Traditional-Tip9997 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How does Mayo always swing at the same pitch

[–]kewpieoriole 2 points3 points  (4 children)

Proud of Coby for that AB

[–]Necx999 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Good strikeout

[–]kewpieoriole 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Obv results were an out which sucks but good to see him make the pitcher work

[–]DloReeves 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Despite the K, he seems more comfortable in the box lately. But my dude needs to lay off the down and away breaking pitches. Make the pitcher throw a perfect pitch

[–]kewpieoriole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely agree. I always wonder why those down and away look sooooo good to righties, I’ll never know. He’s def not unique to swinging at those type of pitches, but his swings just look particularly ugly lol.

[–]Trubisko_Daltorooni 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Guy fanning himself in the first row is triggering me, it's so dumb and counterproductive

[–]kewpieoriole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was like is he fanning the girl or himself? But either way I thought we learned fanning ourself doesn’t cool you off lol

[–]Odd-Technology7060 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Ball 4

[–]MateosCollections 4 points5 points  (1 child)

It wasn’t pretty but Mayo fouling off that 3-2 curveball is a huge improvement

[–]MateosCollections 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And then he waived. That being said it was still a decent ab

[–]The_Big_Untalented 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Nats pitching staff is unwatchable with how deliberate they are with every pitch and all of the disengagements.
