One Philly fan tried to taunt us by saying we were April champions. He was out of earshot by the time I pointed out that it's already May.jwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15186014089449546587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-80342847059192262012-05-05T21:27:08.796-04:002012-05-05T21:27:08.796-04:00Oh, what a game.

On our way out, some phans were saying they'd win tomorrow. I thanked them for helping pay for our ballpark, and I reminded them that after losing two games in a row, the best they could hope for was not to get swept. <br /><br />I just didn't want them to get their hopes up.ehay2khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16441654620820540390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-36100220048950002932012-05-05T20:37:24.435-04:002012-05-05T20:37:24.435-04:00Oh, wait.

That was a fun game, even if I don't have any voice left. There were lots of Phillies Phans in our section and about 9 of us Nats fans were trying to carry the rest of the Nats fans on our backs. My sincere thanks to the team for making it easier on us as the game went along. You quieted them down very nicely, I thought. I may even be able to talk tomorrow. :-)natsfan1ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14540238101124316529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-34538710874906497642012-05-05T20:13:31.725-04:002012-05-05T20:13:31.725-04:00What a lovely game this was!

But they were well behaved--cheering at appropriate places as when they scored the first run and of course booing Werth at every chance.<br /><br />But they were pretty much silenced by Werth's home run. Their boos when he came up again as the score mounted were rather pitiful.<br /><br />I was amused to see tee shirts labeled "Occupy Nationals Park" among the Philly faithful. And the Nats fans got a real kick out of the Screech video showing two Philly fans winning a prize and being escorted from the Nats Park into a van that dumps them at Citizens' Park in Philadelphia. Now that was funny.<br /><br />A great time and I loved Section 111, row L on the third base side. Decent view of the batter, great view of action at 2nd and 3rd, and today's home runs. Glad I have tickets there for a Braves series coming up and plan to buy more.<br /><br />But the win made the afternoon so sweet!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-4880324467876681722012-05-05T18:12:41.949-04:002012-05-05T18:12:41.949-04:00Just a few thoughts on Wang/Jackson/Detwiler.
I ha...Just a few thoughts on Wang/Jackson/Detwiler.<br />I had asked earlier what people thought but do not go back to earlier posts to find out what people think. Not very polite I know. <br /><br />Anyway, I agree with several here that Detwiler can handle it mentally and as the newest member of the starting 5 he certainly has to realize what his role might end up. <br /><br />I think you have to give Wang the shot. I still remember how dominant he was years ago and if we can enter the playoffs with him throwing well it only helps. Detwiler will start again when SS has reached his inning limit and will be a huge part of our future and he has to realize that. I just hope they are communicating that to him.sjm308https://www.blogger.com/profile/01236550495879254916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-22917204865589083412012-05-05T18:08:57.938-04:002012-05-05T18:08:57.938-04:00And what jersey is he wearing tomorrow?

The older crowd stayed till the bitter end but the 30 somethings left early. Loved that they had shirts made up with "Red Invasion 2012". Really nice under armour stuff and I actually wanted to ask who they would be invading next but that would be rubbing it in. One kid did give me a high five and told me to enjoy first place because we would not be there long. Again, I showed restraint and thanked him for coming and told him to enjoy 95 on the way home.<br /><br />Werth was getting it pretty good early in the game from right field but he handled it well, tipping his cap in the first inning. Loved that some idiot philthy fan threw the last home run back on the field. <br /><br />First game I have been to since SS where I get free wings! Love that we have won 8 of 9 series and love that Davey sent Gio up after 90+ pitches and let him get that 7th inning. Gio crushed it twice and Victorino learned his lesson and was playing much deeper the 2nd time or he could have had two double. His slide into 3rd was comical and I worry he might hurt himself on the basepaths. Did people comment on Espinosa's slide or lack of a slide on Ankiel's double? It was not a pretty sight.<br /><br />Great day, great crowd and first place with the blue 1936 straight W in red on for the 5th straight day.<br /><br />Go Nats!!sjm308https://www.blogger.com/profile/01236550495879254916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-46612491390545928152012-05-05T17:49:10.901-04:002012-05-05T17:49:10.901-04:00NatsJack-Have no Fear, Ignorance is here. Was at ...NatsJack-Have no Fear, Ignorance is here. Was at the game cheering for Werth like always. Just because I don't think he is very good doesn't mean I don't want him to do well. That HR today was his best AB as a National. Hopefully we will see more of that because you can see how desperately it is needed. That was the kind of spark I expected when we signed him last year. He actually showed some emotion out there in the outfield when the Phillie fans were getting on him after the backwards K with runners on base. He was yelling up at them and tipping his cap. Looks like it got him going a little bit. I definitely like the pissed off Werth a lot better than the nonchalant one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-5643152858748962602012-05-05T17:43:15.779-04:002012-05-05T17:43:15.779-04:00Scott--actually I do too.
