Ross was so good, but when JZ came in, Mr. Stoic was actually the one that ramped up the intensity with his rare show of in your face aggression. Clip and Store matched him. I could feel the buzz ratcheting up. Then desi laid out on a full out effort, too. It was like they were urging each other on. What an inspiring battle. They set up the moment for Jayson perfectly.baseballswamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03473384422940931212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-36251091134319541542012-10-12T05:39:35.046-04:002012-10-12T05:39:35.046-04:00The link to "read more" appears to be br...The link to "read more" appears to be broken.perichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02669200119049715758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-51816949074150441042012-10-12T05:26:36.204-04:002012-10-12T05:26:36.204-04:00Cunegonde and I missed the first two games 'cu...Cunegonde and I missed the first two games 'cuz we were out of the country, so this was an agonizing treat.

I have to stop staying up to watch all these other game and I can always watch more replays and clips in the morning :) Seriously, though, Jordan was lethal in the seventh inning. MLB network showcased him at his best. He was throwing bullets. I hope he has unleashed his inner beast. That was awesome.

Cat and mouse between pitching and batting. Fans sweating on every play, with everything on the line. Tied all the way to the bottom of the ninth. Jayson Werth fouling off pitch after pitch before making the big hit that let us have at least one more night of this wonderful thing called post-season baseball. "Let's go Nats" chants continued down to the Metro. Special thanks to the pitching staff, and Ian Desmond for a great catch.dcdingohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11554198027647130442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-49476054018292596952012-10-11T22:17:19.074-04:002012-10-11T22:17:19.074-04:00Swami.. keep rubbing it in.

My Filly relatives are just bitter right now because they no longer have Jayson, Raul, Victorino or Pence.
