Axford looks like a wild west gunslinger. Don’t get where the announcers think he looks like the Burger King.

wow, I’m not sure thát was ball 4….but we’ll take it.
Ward
Doesn’t ‘gaining ground’ only apply when you’er behind? Because we’re up on the Phills;)
Meantime, Washington is looking better than any team in the division so far. Sollid ballclub they’ve got right now. Lets wait and see if they can keep that going.

Pastornicky could ground into a 6-4-3 or 4-6-3 DP here and I’d be happy because it would mean a run.

Bases loaded and nobody out with their closer pitching. The new Burger King can’t get it done

Nobody wants to get close enough to confirm or deny…so we will just assume its hair
Jerry

Now, with the bases loaded and Pastornicky coming up, does he do what he’s been doing and hits it to short for an easy DP?
Dutchieeeeee

wow, yes it’s an E, but that ball was hit haaaaard by FF, again.

Like it’s a crime or should be shameful to work in Ward’s line of work….

Lawton

don’t prefer this. I would have rather let Meds hit and then go back out in the 9th. If you are going to hit Hinske, hit him for Pastornicky then then Wilson play SS.
abeeewright
April 15th, 2012
4:11 pm
Why not let Meds go two and get this thing nailed down? Don’t like pinch-hitting here. Especially if Durbin is coming in to finish the game.

Axford looks thrilled to have warmed up, pitched (poorly) in a non-critical spot and then get pulled in the middle of an inning.

Well, I see that Nick has come on during the game for good luck.
And it sure sounded like Beachy was in for a short outing, if you read many posters early on.
Good to see a few bats warming up today.
