Basically what its been all year, no surprise. Will be interesting to see how it goes tomorrow.

yeah our offense has disappeared at times all year. But the AB’s were just pathetic tonight. They didn’t adapt at all.
Footbal coaches and players make adjustments at halftime. Can or do other baseball teams make adjustments to their pre-game plans to attack a pitcher? [Reply]

We have been to 4 WS and won 2 of them the last 15 season pervious to this one. Thats not even close to choking.

You've got to win 4 of 6 games against Sherzer, Corbin and Strausburg. And the Nationals have been one of the most resilient teams in the history of the sport. [Reply]
