GAME THREAD: Nationals (38-40) @ Padres (42-41) - June 25, 2024

I thought California was chill but times have changed.

Just drop floor and move corbad to the pen already

So much scrap

At least we went down fighting

Ugh why?

Go ahead winker home run would save me

Don’t flex like profar. Show we are a high class organization

Cmon lane, tie this up

Go down fighting

That single , single handedly restored my dignity lol

The scenes in San Diego if Lane homers here

CJ staying on top of 3 100mph pitches in a row is promising

👀

Game isn’t over baby!

Tying run at the plate now

So Arraez at first has been... interesting

First baseman sold the clip lol

Still in it!

It was pretty fun for a minute there. I'll see yall tomorrow

Davey and rizzo need to pull their heads out of their asses and dfa rosario he quite literally has a negative war

Power outage 😳

The lights just went off at the stadium before MASN broke for commercial

Was this planned? It's weird

Keep putting up 0's Rainey!

Another good inning from Tanner!

Coles has ruined Keibert more than anyone. It’s unreal how he cannot hit in the clutch.

Jesus christ how many mound visits have we had this inning?

Can someone explain to me how we got Ramírez basically for free? He’s a career .270-.300 hitter yet can’t seem to stick around anywhere, it’s odd.

Well placed hit down the line there! We're not dead just yet

sway those hips harold!!

NEW GUY

Keibert homering would be pure poetry.

Is it scrapping time?

Profar with some Rosario like hustle

FUCK YES RAMIREZ

We’re still in it!

Alright :)

14/17 getting the runner in with less than 2 out for Joey is a crazy stat.

Bro the way he grips the ball is so unusual. How can anyone separate their fingers like that?

All im saying is if Keibert Ruiz hits a game tying slam, bards will sing of this game for generations

Joey with another RBI!

That’s a rally killer

Never heard of a “Chitter”

This is where the scrap happens

My dog just told me we’re scoring six here

I enjoyed that!

Just watched abrams tag third LMFAO

This is how we start a rally!

Oh are we lucky.

Time to scrap.

They’re doing the wave

Keep your mouths closed

Isn’t San Diego the team where their fans start trolling and speaking stupid memes under the team tweet about loss to them.

Now that is some vintage Weemage right there

Lol, Bob says the ump "took that box and turned it horizontally"

I love how snarky he's gotten since he started years ago

So only checking the score and not watching the game has been a good choice. Goddamn.

when the padres inevitably choke it away down the stretch of the season, the hate watching will be stuff of legend

Aight bedtime friends, this one hurt, if we bring it back good on yall for staying up

I legit cannot wait to see this ump scorecard tomorrow. It’s gonna be absolutely atrocious.

Just me or is Garcia ice old recently? Edit: right as I send it 

I forget: who’s our next opponent?

This not being able to hit and add on runs is infuriating. This road trip better be where Davey fires Coles.

Notice how Nick didn’t fall over like he go shot

Dogshit zone ✅ interferes with throws ✅

At least the wizards are almost a lock to get Sarr tomorrow

Strike zone is an F+. What is this garbage 😭

Gonna be really funny when we bring this one back

well I thought it smart to put some dollaroos on the nats here in Vegas so to my surprise I just pulled up to the sports book and it's 9-4 🤬

Over/Under 10 pitches for the Nats to be done with the top of the 7th?

From 1 strike away to finally being at .500 to 3 under again in the blink of an eye barring a miracle

I'm in Petco tonight, and wooo between the scuffle in the 1st and the shelling we've taken in the last two innings...

I’ve seen enough, Weems is mvp bound.

I guess they’re saving the bullpen for Wednesday.

Might as well give Weems the Rainey treatment and let him tinker in garbage time.

i am sad.

Weems and Rainey, take us home.

OH YA WEEMS NOTHING BAD EVER HAPPENS WORH HIM THIS IS PAIN THIS IS SUFFERING

Does this suck? Yeah! But we also don’t have as much invested to our team as the Padres lol

Derek Law with runners on base has to be one of the worst pitchers in baseball.

Imagine putting Law in that spot knowing how horrendous he is with runners on.

the nats are 2-0 this season when their opponent hits a grand slam…thus far

These last few games may be a preview for the rest of the season when we ship out our good relievers- even if it is our good relievers slipping up recently

That felt inevitable.

I am now asking our offense to conjure up the power of the 1927 Yankees

Not to worry fellas , we have them right where we want them

Well that's obnoxious.

All the leaves are brown, and the sky is gray.

Yurp. This one is rough. If we get swept after all this I think we'll be the ones that come out looking like clowns. I'm not giving up on this just yet but it's not looking good at all

I had never heard of Jurickson Profar before last night and I never want to see him again.

Okay lets just punt and give Rainey some BP now. Come back tmr

All around me are familiar faces Worn-out places, worn-out faces

lmfao

Turns out Profar is our dads this series

DFA

Trade deadline can’t come soon enough.

Of course it had to be him...

What did WE do to anger the baseball gods?

The script for this game is wild

Oh well. I am sure the Padres will be more insufferable.

I’m telling you, after 2019, this shit doesn’t hurt me one bit

But I’m glad we’ll be the wrong end of the top post of r/baseball for the.. 3rd time in 5 days

nope don't like that

Derek we all saw it coming but I really hoped

well this in particular really sucks

lol he sucks

The wheels have fallen off the bus.

We’re going to the top of r/baseball

Typical law

Fuck you. Fuck you jurickson profar

oh no

unbelievably sluggish play by Ruiz but you know what I'll take it. Great play by Joey

Why is Derek Law in???

Wheels are about to fall off the bus.

Nice Joey!

I’ll take that. But we need a double play now

Almost shit myself on that one 

Derek Law vs his biggest demon

I’m a Padres fan but had no idea Sean Doolittle is on your staff. He’s absolutely the coolest looking coach in the league by far
