Washington Nationals at Baltimore Orioles, May 16, 2008 7:05 PM EDT
| Today's Starting Pitchers | GS | IP | ERA | WHIP | BAA | BB | K | W-L | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 |
Shawn Hill - RH | 5 | 30.1 | 3.56 | 1.32 | .265 | 9 | 18 | 0-0 |
 |
Garrett Olson - LH | 3 | 18.1 | 2.95 | 1.25 | .235 | 7 | 15 | 2-0 |
Game time is 7:05 on MASN.
27-year old Shawn Hill (he turned 27 on April 28) gave the Nats about 100 good innings last season in 16 starts and is doing more of the same this year. Not a big strikeout guy, doesn't have GREAT command, but doesn't get hit very hard and doesn't beat himself. He's already had his TJ surgery so that's not a concern, but he did have some work done this offseason. He's a sinkerballer. The Nats apparently love the kid, but they also loved John Patterson once upon a time.
Garrett Olson has been tits this season. He replaced Adam Loewen, who was continuing to do his Adam Loewen thing, and the difference has been night and day. Between Guthrie, Cabrera, Olson and Burres, the Oriole rotation is giving us a routinely good shot to win four times through the rotation. I'm not saying those dudes are infallible or close to it at all, but that's not bad. When Loewen's healthy, Trachsel's gotta be done for. Olson is throwing too well to jerk him around again. He's pitching confidently and trusting his stuff, which has been the story of Cabrera and Burres, too.
I don't know if you heard, but the shocking news of an injury to Nick "The Stick" Johnson has come through the wire, and he's on the DL. Dmitri Young! ACTIVATE!

If you have an osx mac you can use universal access to zoom in on the picture to make it more “full screen.” i’m not sure if the same can be done on a conventional pc.

so that was a 2 RBI double play?
I’m watching on gamechannel, and here’s the description: Markakis grounded into FC, Jones scored, BRob to 3rd, Mora out at 2nd, NM to 2nd on 2b throwing E.
I guess that’ll be in the highlights.

Should have been a double play
Jones scored, Mora was out at second, Lopez threw way wide to first allowing BRob score.

Each of them is good in moderation
Luckily there are only 162 games in a baseball season so we don’t have to hear Palmer that much. My point was that you have the color commentator to give the perspective from one who player. With two of them up there, especially when they played in the same era, it is just talking about plane ride in 1972 and batting practice in august of the ‘75 season.

that I am less jealous off, in all honesty. Teams like the Pirates and Royals do not come to mind because they were at one time very good and have nice ballparks with a semi-solid fan base. Possibly the Marlins or the Rays but if you were to ask me today not the Devil Rays. Rangers may come to mind.

I bet those two are like a nervous eighth grade quasi-couple at the movies. Palmer keeps brushing his hand up against Sutton’s, waiting for Sutton to grasp, but Sutton isn’t sure if it’s just a coincidence.

He missed a fairly tough ground ball in the hole
backhand from Zimmerman, ruled as a hit. Then an infielder absolutely HAS to go out until he is called off. Obviously I don’t know what they work out before games but in most cases you rely on the SS/2B to go for the ball in the triangle.
My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver

#3 is a tele thinline w/ two p-90s
those are my primaries. i also have a dano u-2 re-issue, an epi dot, a tele project guitar i’m experiementing on, a dearmond i use for slide and a bunch of acoustic instruments.

Moscow sez: Is we hot, or Is We Hot?!?
And is the Nats a disorganized rabble or is the Nats…what? From the highlights, anyway, it looked like we were playing, y’know, a National League team or something.
What? Oh yeah. Um, I knew that.
This was one of those fairly undistinguished games that, well, somebody has to win. Olson didn’t get a QS but did deserve a W, which he got (he’d probably rather have the former—you think?). Enough people hit just enough, and the pen looked good, esp. Hat Man (aka the Sheriff, etc.) And somehow Petey sold 29 K tickets, of which far from all were punched.
OK, we is smokin’, let’s light it up again, Brian. Go O’s!
p.s. Y’know, Amber is no Edward R. Murrow out there, but she’s OK at interviews—and she’s also looking, I dunno, sort of cuter lately. Am I right or am I right?

Whoops, almost forgot the SidWatch Report:
His team scored 16 but nope, Sid wasn’t taking Yes for an answer. No decision, and his own fault:
“After getting the 8-2 lead, Rangers starter Sidney Ponson allowed the first two batters in the fifth to reach, on a single and his fielding error, before a wild pitch. Darin Erstad hit an RBI double to make it 8-7, but on that play Carlos Lee was thrown out at the plate to the end the inning.”
