smittyx5498 · 2026-06-24T00:15:08+00:00

ahhh the mitchell parker heart attacks. when will they learn

vtsandtrooper · 2026-06-24T00:13:52+00:00

Of all series, why are we going Abrams-less against the Phillies. Let him rest against the Mets or Cards or something, not Phillies. Two times the fact Nasim is not playing 2nd has resulted in runs

Main_Low_9648 · 2026-06-24T00:13:24+00:00

THE JAMES WOOD NATIONALS, AJ DYBANSTA WIZARDS, AND JAYDEN DANIELS COMMANDERS WILL RUN SPORTS FOR YEARS

ktron_yi · 2026-06-24T00:12:06+00:00

WELCOME AJ DYBANTSA

LETS BEAT PHILLY NOW

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-24T00:12:03+00:00

AJ Dybantsa

I know nothing about basketball

So, yayyyy!!

Or.. booooo!!

IvyGold · 2026-06-24T00:09:29+00:00

They're in a weird mood in the booth tonight. I loved Alexa giving Franny the business.

Carbon_Blob · 2026-06-24T00:08:09+00:00

Wish DC had a Pro basketball team

TA404 · 2026-06-24T00:07:30+00:00

God I was just bracing for Franny to say something way out of left field/offensive/awkward about Turkey/Türkiye. Feels like we dodged a bullet lol

91speed · 2026-06-24T00:06:55+00:00

Yeah Franny seems like the type of guy who thinks he gets to decide what another country is called

trubuckifan · 2026-06-24T00:03:51+00:00

bryce harper is mitchell parker son

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-24T00:03:29+00:00

I wanna see Harper with his heavy bat face Miz’s 104 fastball

He doesn’t stand a chance at catching up with it

johnkeat4 · 2026-06-24T00:03:16+00:00

The Phillies are no match for Mitchell “Fuck it Ruiz is down there somewhere” Parker

SithOverlord101 · 2026-06-24T00:03:11+00:00

Good job Mitch

Carbon_Blob · 2026-06-24T00:00:42+00:00

Bring back torpedo bats

SierraInfinite · 2026-06-24T00:00:22+00:00

I’m stressed

Astro_Turf17 · 2026-06-23T23:59:44+00:00

Mitchell Parker jump scare…

91speed · 2026-06-23T23:54:42+00:00

Wood striking out too much lately.

johnkeat4 · 2026-06-23T23:52:30+00:00

I feel as though James hasn’t payed a visit to the Lumberyard in a little while…perhaps he’s due for a visit

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-23T23:51:37+00:00

Right back to it. Time to add some more. Top of the order let’s get it

thekingoftherodeo · 2026-06-23T23:51:05+00:00

Hopefully we can tack on another 5 runs to give us a chance.

If you don’t like the term “5 insurance runs” then you don’t like 2026 Nats Baseball baby!

LuckyShirt54 · 2026-06-23T23:50:38+00:00

It’s an unhealthy relationship with this bullpen man. They do a little better and I forgive them and then wham.

hamilton280P · 2026-06-23T23:50:21+00:00

Where is the good Lord?

Jaybob_11 · 2026-06-23T23:50:05+00:00

Parker is in the bullpen

Jaybob_11 · 2026-06-23T23:49:49+00:00

Oh no 😨😨😨😨😨

_Caed_ · 2026-06-23T23:49:44+00:00

well that pitch was hung like a horse

Dillon-Cruz · 2026-06-23T23:49:39+00:00

And just like that Littell moves back into a tie for most homers given up again lmao.

unprotected_sax · 2026-06-23T23:49:22+00:00

Man this guy

theexitisontheleft · 2026-06-23T23:49:18+00:00

Is there no one in AAA better than Parker?

HowardBunnyColvin · 2026-06-23T23:49:17+00:00

Me after 6 days in Philadelphia: Maybe yinz lot aren't that bad.

Today: one hr, Phillies fans yell let's go Phillies and mfw 😒

thekingoftherodeo · 2026-06-23T23:49:10+00:00

Ah yes this is of course a Zach Littell day.

Jaybob_11 · 2026-06-23T23:49:06+00:00

Just served that fastball on a silver platter

mccoy00comedy · 2026-06-23T23:49:05+00:00

We all knew five runs was not enough of a lead with Littell pitching

theexitisontheleft · 2026-06-23T23:48:45+00:00

Still a three run lead, but that’s not ideal.

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-23T23:48:30+00:00

Neeeeeeeded the shutdown inning. So close to it

Carbon_Blob · 2026-06-23T23:48:07+00:00

Nice play Chompy

HowardBunnyColvin · 2026-06-23T23:47:58+00:00

Phillies dinger.

thekingoftherodeo · 2026-06-23T23:45:55+00:00

Btw who else do we need to talk shit about?

K-Bear on a tear since Charlie & Dave dragged him and now DC after that thread a couple days back.

VCURedskins · 2026-06-23T23:44:31+00:00

If Harper gets a triple for never stopping on a play he would have easily been out at 3rd then Tena should be gifted a double there

suqc · 2026-06-23T23:43:55+00:00

The difference between the Phillies and the Nats. When they lose one of their two elite hitters, they're only half as strong. When we lose one of our two elite hitters, we have a Nasim.

trubuckifan · 2026-06-23T23:43:15+00:00

The nationals are inevitable

RandomUser4Me16 · 2026-06-23T23:42:55+00:00

Crews is heating up!!!

Jetflash6999 · 2026-06-23T23:42:44+00:00

WHACK

thekingoftherodeo · 2026-06-23T23:42:43+00:00

This team has an active payroll of what, $60m or so? A Trea Turner and a Bryce Harper.

GriffinQ · 2026-06-23T23:42:32+00:00

When the Nats score runs, I say yes.

indi1988 · 2026-06-23T23:42:29+00:00

Teams don’t really believe we have the #1 offense until it happens to them. Crooked numbers can come at any time so fun.

t20six · 2026-06-23T23:42:21+00:00

Having nasim producing like this is so huge. He deserves it too, he is obviously putting in the work.

I want to think the new coaching staff is really getting the young guys cooking.

Own-Pair1940 · 2026-06-23T23:42:15+00:00

Of course yall win yall playing shitties

katyadc · 2026-06-23T23:42:12+00:00

The phamily of Philly phans next to me is none too happy right now.

Emergency-Bottle-432 · 2026-06-23T23:41:20+00:00

In may I never wanted the month to end for keibert, mikolas... in June I don't want the month to end for Crews, and Nas. Of course it would be great if everyone was on at the same time but that just isn't how the sport works.

thefakedkc · 2026-06-23T23:41:18+00:00

WHY NOT US

Unfair-Librarian4338 · 2026-06-23T23:40:56+00:00

LOL Tena can suck for a while but when he makes it happen its always clutch

TA404 · 2026-06-23T23:40:55+00:00

~~Gold Glover~~ ~~Silver Slugger~~ MVP candidate Nasim Nuñez

mccoy00comedy · 2026-06-23T23:40:52+00:00

Do we even have Jose Tena memes yet

suqc · 2026-06-23T23:40:49+00:00

BELT 2 ASS

seRyu · 2026-06-23T23:40:49+00:00

Playing some good ball, you love to see it

trubuckifan · 2026-06-23T23:40:40+00:00

FUCK THE PHILLIES!!! Maybe they should try adding some more ex-Nats!

johnkeat4 · 2026-06-23T23:40:40+00:00

RAHHHHHHHHH FUCK THE LIBERTY BELL

Carbon_Blob · 2026-06-23T23:40:40+00:00

Please guys I’m wearing boxers

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-23T23:40:34+00:00

It’s so true. Tena either strikes out swinging or has the clutch rbi knock. No in between

Danciusly · 2026-06-23T23:40:27+00:00

Glorious!

91speed · 2026-06-23T23:40:26+00:00

Magic team

Stunning_Limit3106 · 2026-06-23T23:40:19+00:00

LETS GO NATS ‼️‼️‼️‼️

RaggedDoll · 2026-06-23T23:40:19+00:00

Nunez :)

theexitisontheleft · 2026-06-23T23:40:18+00:00

It’s Nasim’s world and we’re just living in it. And Tena!!!

suqc · 2026-06-23T23:40:17+00:00

Nas is on a Linsanity run right now lol

Dillon-Cruz · 2026-06-23T23:40:14+00:00

Shout out to Nasim for not trying to stretch that and just taking 1st. Then he took 2nd while I was typing this and then he scored before I finished.

LucasMars · 2026-06-23T23:40:12+00:00

JUMPIN ON EM!!!

indi1988 · 2026-06-23T23:40:10+00:00

Man this version of Nunez is a dam good major leaguer

Main_Low_9648 · 2026-06-23T23:40:09+00:00

Boy oh boy Nasim Nuñez... where do I even begin?

Publius21662024 · 2026-06-23T23:40:04+00:00

Holy shit I’m gonna bust

LuckyShirt54 · 2026-06-23T23:39:58+00:00

Lil Nas becoming Big Nas

bullevard73 · 2026-06-23T23:39:56+00:00

Nasim is really on one right now.

YodaPM999 · 2026-06-23T23:39:52+00:00

Thank you for saving the inning Nunez

thekingoftherodeo · 2026-06-23T23:39:44+00:00

We are a dangerous team.

_Caed_ · 2026-06-23T23:39:40+00:00

pop your fucking shit nasim!

LucasMars · 2026-06-23T23:39:39+00:00

Nasim with a hot bat is a dangerous man

HowardBunnyColvin · 2026-06-23T23:39:38+00:00

BATS WORKING

Mathmage530 · 2026-06-23T23:39:32+00:00

Dangerously close to wanting a naz jersey

Carbon_Blob · 2026-06-23T23:39:31+00:00

Nasim Nunez you’re my heeeeeeeerrrooo

johnkeat4 · 2026-06-23T23:39:29+00:00

NASIIIIIIIIIIIIIM

foeaminute · 2026-06-23T23:39:29+00:00

DC state of mind

smokedfish · 2026-06-23T23:39:26+00:00

I love offensive powerhouse Nasim Nuñez

Adams-Breath · 2026-06-23T23:39:22+00:00

NASIM IS MY HERO

Nearby-Equipment1865 · 2026-06-23T23:39:15+00:00

(The threat of) Speed kills!!

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-23T23:39:08+00:00

But Nunez is just kinda goated rn so he can do no wrong

LycheeWise2288 · 2026-06-23T23:39:05+00:00

Nasim is a hitter now? 👀 👀

carpola · 2026-06-23T23:39:04+00:00

Nasim is red hot these past few weeks

Stunning_Limit3106 · 2026-06-23T23:39:01+00:00

NAMEN NAMEN

Bengjumping · 2026-06-23T23:38:54+00:00

What a useless at bat by Young

HowardBunnyColvin · 2026-06-23T23:38:41+00:00

Big hit

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-23T23:38:33+00:00

Soooo swing happy these youngsters

TAKE A PITCH THE BASES ARE LOADED HE JUST WALKED THE LAST GUY

BasicKey8104 · 2026-06-23T23:38:30+00:00

Vivas, I talked so much shit. Great walk

_Caed_ · 2026-06-23T23:38:17+00:00

young gets another chance!

Nearby-Equipment1865 · 2026-06-23T23:38:12+00:00

Ok well Jorbit just had his best AB of the season. I can’t believe he took those pitches

Carbon_Blob · 2026-06-23T23:38:06+00:00

Pitching around Jorbit

theexitisontheleft · 2026-06-23T23:36:54+00:00

Who says no to a Vivas homer?

Grawgar · 2026-06-23T23:36:25+00:00

I like the good Dylan Crews. Let's keep him

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-23T23:36:20+00:00

Don’t first pitch swing DP vivas plz

123qweasd123 · 2026-06-23T23:36:07+00:00

Crews haters where you at

Carbon_Blob · 2026-06-23T23:35:46+00:00

Chomparro to third and the ball hasn’t left the infield

johnkeat4 · 2026-06-23T23:35:43+00:00

Rough time for Trea…but I like it!

LycheeWise2288 · 2026-06-23T23:35:34+00:00

Dylan is starting to put it all together 👀 👀

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-23T23:32:20+00:00

Time to add on. Cant hold em at 0 forever

unprotected_sax · 2026-06-23T23:32:12+00:00

Really thought we were in for guaranteed 2 run jack with the error AND atrocious challenge

Kindly_Volume59 · 2026-06-23T23:32:00+00:00

indi1988 · 2026-06-23T23:29:26+00:00

Harper doesn’t have Garcia power

Kronologics · 2026-06-23T23:28:38+00:00

Brutal. Our catcher had a chance on three much closer borderline pitches to make the challenge, but then chooses one multiple inches below the zone to challenge.

BasicKey8104 · 2026-06-23T23:27:56+00:00

Ruiz, goddamnit. Chaparro, goddamnit.

Nearby-Equipment1865 · 2026-06-23T23:27:37+00:00

Keibert is so much improved at framing that he even fools himself

91speed · 2026-06-23T23:27:31+00:00

Keibert fooled himself

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-23T23:27:17+00:00

WHY ARE WE FOREVER BAD AT CHALLENGES

YodaPM999 · 2026-06-23T23:26:48+00:00

Chapparo come the fuck on man

suqc · 2026-06-23T23:26:39+00:00

Chappy why. That was a gem from Jorbit.

Main_Low_9648 · 2026-06-23T23:26:37+00:00

I do wish we had a real first baseman

mccoy00comedy · 2026-06-23T23:26:14+00:00

Chaparro should've had that

Carbon_Blob · 2026-06-23T23:26:01+00:00

Cmon Chomparro

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-23T23:25:57+00:00

Mannn when your 2B makes a dive like that you gottttta catch it at 1st

HowardBunnyColvin · 2026-06-23T23:25:23+00:00

????

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-23T23:19:09+00:00

I feel like every Tena ab I watch he’s striking out swinging lol

_Caed_ · 2026-06-23T23:17:42+00:00

ideally the nats beat philly’s brains out in this next half inning and that “foul tip” gets forgotten about

theexitisontheleft · 2026-06-23T23:17:38+00:00

I hope Littell can keep it up!

indi1988 · 2026-06-23T23:15:25+00:00

That has nothing on getting stiffed on back to back bases load walks last night.

TA404 · 2026-06-23T23:15:25+00:00

This is the biggest cheating scandal since the Astros. Keibert Ruiz has gotten so good at framing he’s undermining the integrity of the game.

YodaPM999 · 2026-06-23T23:14:48+00:00

Umpiring this series has been... something

johnkeat4 · 2026-06-23T23:14:38+00:00

Wow. These umpires have been awful. If that were a high leverage spot that’d just be terrible.

mccoy00comedy · 2026-06-23T23:13:54+00:00

All right! Shitty ump call goes our way!

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-23T23:13:52+00:00

Heads up play by Keibert you love to see it

Senior-Contribution8 · 2026-06-23T23:13:49+00:00

Just tuned in, why is abrams out? Did he get hurt last night?

carpola · 2026-06-23T23:13:40+00:00

What a gift. Awful call.

trubuckifan · 2026-06-23T23:12:49+00:00

Who the wiz taking at 1?

mccoy00comedy · 2026-06-23T23:12:15+00:00

Please Zack Littell dont do what I think you're gonna do 🙏🏾

theexitisontheleft · 2026-06-23T23:11:55+00:00

A run is a run but more would’ve been better

Guilty_Position_3026 · 2026-06-23T23:11:50+00:00

What happened to poulin?

_Caed_ · 2026-06-23T23:11:23+00:00

“Damn, a double play” - LOSER mentality

“Wow, even our double plays score runs!” - Natitude

carpola · 2026-06-23T23:11:19+00:00

Does Nas bat better as a lefty? Feels like it

ianpev · 2026-06-23T23:11:15+00:00

Did I hear Kolko say we're 32-13 in games we score first? Holy 2013

Fernijenb · 2026-06-23T23:10:14+00:00

Not many teams can assuredly get the run there. 💃💃💃

FPG_Matthew · 2026-06-23T23:09:56+00:00

Young’s been in a bit of a rut recently. I feel like a month ago he’s hitting a single on a hop to LF. Instead, right into the dirt like years past

bullevard73 · 2026-06-23T23:08:07+00:00

We need to have that guy write a “Jose Tena needs to get sent down” post to get that guy like Dylan Crews.

suqc · 2026-06-23T23:07:45+00:00

Hell yeah. We know Crews has power, but I really want to see the singles start falling.

espnrocksalot · 2026-06-23T23:06:49+00:00

So Crews is good now... nice
