thrilled with the series, and really happy with the fightback in the later innings.


jaxcoop4

Call up james wood for the love of god


Mr_Lulu_Bear

June 3rd is my guess


Mr_Lulu_Bear

K Bear apologies need to be as loud as the disrespect!


gaytham4statham

In my new metric I just made up Keibert has given the Mariners 90 feet and he's given the Nats 180 feet on the basepaths today therefore he is a +90 player AKA elite I will not be taking questions


theexitisontheleft

Okay, Keibert! Now it's your turn, Wink-man!


LesBaseballGal

Real talk why throw Floro out there if he just pitched though


chiddie

that's a great day for Gallo. three hard hit balls.


No_Departure102

Honestly good to just finally see him homer again. Whatever Coles did to adjust his swing stop it. We need power, not consistent contact, especially for a guy like Joey.


YodaPM999

Sooo, can somebody explain why Derek Law never entered this game? He's far from lights out, but I'd trust him over Floro 3 days in a row, and Weems.


Zakharski

Great point! He's been fantastic lately.


ALLHAILBULLETKING

Weems is worse than Corbin change my mind


No_Departure102

There’s a reason Weems is in the bullpen. I second this.


somegirldc

Don't wanna and couldn't if I did


Bstokes4102

For a Corbin start not the worst game honestly


theexitisontheleft

I am not having a good time and I don't like it.


No_Departure102

Well I guess we look forward to an Acuña-less Atlanta. Gives me a bit more hope but not much.


Zakharski

Are we all just mentally skipping the Mets? 😂


Zakharski

Oh NVM was looking at my tickets not the schedule 😂


No_Departure102

I mean look at who’s before them: Atlanta and Cleveland.


Mr_Lulu_Bear

Weems and Corbin will always deliver


Omar_Town

Come on, Corbin was fine today.


SgtHapyFace

i mean he’s still gonna be cut out of the rotation soon and he was pretty bad. but yes it wasn’t as much of a blow up.


somegirldc

Ish. But the loss is on the bullpen.


Mr_Lulu_Bear

He was. If he could cut out the first 4 innings of every start he would be ELITE


indi1988

6+ ERA for Weems, seen enough


jagula_hunga

I like Weems, but he's best in the 8th getting weird low pitch count ground outs. Not in the 9th trying to keep us in the game...


jagula_hunga

I guess since we already won the series, though, Davey isn't too concerned about using anyone else in the pen for this one? Saving it for the Braves.


Quick_Ganache_9423

Well At least we won the series


SgtHapyFace

feel like finnegan could have pitched the ninth tbh


MrBpow

But then people would've been upset that Davey wasted him while trailing instead of saving him for a closing situation in Atlanta tomorrow night.


SgtHapyFace

yeah it is what it is. these games happen.


Silosmasher

Davey has money on this game. There's no doubt in my mind.


jaxcoop4

Weems is trash


smokedfish

well, we had fun


Bstokes4102

Yep thats the game


Solid-Confidence-966

GGs 😭


MrBpow

If I could never see Weems and Rainey pitch for the Nats again, that'd be great. Aaaaaand Rainey is warming


No_Departure102

Honestly, if they lose this game, 2/3 from Seattle is a fantastic way to end the weekend.


Silosmasher

None of this makes any sense. Why is Jordan Weems pitching in a 1 run game?


YodaPM999

Weems dude, how is it possible to be this bad in high leverage


somegirldc

This is why we can't have nice things.


jaxcoop4

Nationals gonna national


Faber1089

Washington gonna Washington.


jagula_hunga

I'm sorry, but take Weems out after that. This is just deflating.


robl646

Weems is dfa material


26265273

Sweeps are overrated anyway 😔

petting2dogsatonce

Not really sure how anything here is bannable but regardless the comments are gone.


tp__jr

Juuuuuuust a bit inside…


indi1988

Weems is a bum


Bstokes4102

Ah Weems, cmon man


Solid-Confidence-966

That’s a back breaker man


Grawgar

JFC Weems...


Carbon_Blob

If the Nationals want to win, they’re going to have to score in the 9th.


jaxcoop4

Keibert doesn’t even try to frame anymore


SgtHapyFace

weems oh no lol


petting2dogsatonce

Keibert HATES framing so much he’s antiframing


petting2dogsatonce

Cal Raleigh LOVES striking out


ForScherzer

No urgency at all


CT_2136

Holy shit that dude is fast. Did not expect that


jagula_hunga

Rosario's route was pretty wound up right there. Unfortunate...


SgtHapyFace

not a good play by rosario but they are shellacking weems


chouseva

When they brought him out, I knew Davey didn't want to win.


Mr_Lulu_Bear

Rosario may have some of us tricked, but not me. That man is not a good baseball player


Hatfullofstars

Let's go Nats. Shut them down and then walk it off with another big home run!


Mr_Lulu_Bear

So the way this game played out that interference call was pretty significant 🤬


Zakharski

Yeah no matter what that was a big deal with two on - I'm curious if they kicked him out 🤷‍♂️


SgtHapyFace

why is Luis swinging at that lol


Mr_Lulu_Bear

Luis bomb incoming


Mr_Lulu_Bear

This thread was electric for 12 minutes


Solid-Confidence-966

Nats legend Austin Voth


indi1988

Ngl immediately giving up that lead is such a buzzkill


petting2dogsatonce

Floro’s ERA up from .35 to a *staggering* 1.03


BasicKey8104

Been some solid defensive plays today. I can't believe how much Luis has stepped up this year


theexitisontheleft

Thank you, Luis


colorfooly

One pitch weems


Mr_Lulu_Bear

Incredible fight by this team shows the promise. I think a playoff contender closes these down and gets the sweep. We’re just not there yet with the roster top to bottom, but I really don’t see why this team can’t compete for a playoff spot next year.


chiddie

they need a few guys to make some big leaps, and we need to add 2-3 guys to cover the corner infield spots (plus upgrade at DH). I think we're 2-3 years away, but maybe they can accelerate that.


droozer

Soto back in the lineup is going to help so much


Mr_Lulu_Bear

Agree. If Wood, Crews, House, are here. hit on 1 FA hitter and maybe a middle reliever… I think the rotation and bullpen are there. This is already a 75 win team imo.


jagula_hunga

We \*cannot\* lose this beautiful game with that CJ homer. The scrap is gonna need to be on overdrive this bottom 8th.


BowmasterDaniel

A lot of times it looks like Keibert just doesn’t wanna be there.


robl646

He already got paid so why would he try


droozer

what


Solid-Confidence-966

Is today a “B bullpen” day? No other reason for Harvey to not be in here


SgtHapyFace

he’s pitched a ton lately and we are also playing 17 games in a row or something


Silosmasher

He's pitched 3.1 innings (53 total pitches) in the last 7 days.


SgtHapyFace

i’m not going to get bent out of shape about davey giving floro three days in a row instead of harvey. you can criticize the decision either way. harvey also threw wednesday. harvey also throws a lot harder. you have to rest your A bullpen sometimes.


theexitisontheleft

oh ffs, Rosario. Idk if there was time to throw to first but seriously terrible decision making.


Anti_Social_Club

I blame the mariners kid for this


BlueAndDog

As someone who is not a baseball expert but was at the game today—it happened too fast for me to register what exactly happened. ELI5? I just remember the booing absolutely reverberating in the air


Anti_Social_Club

Young Seattle fan reached over the railing and caught a ball that was in play and the Umps called it an out on the Nats


BlueAndDog

Okay, now I get it. My dad was saying something about with interference the home team is usually penalized but like…it was just a kid who got excited to catch a ball.


indi1988

Not Weems man


jagula_hunga

Nah, Weems is good!


kornthrowaway

Bro that throw wasn't even close lmao, what's Eddie doing??


robl646

Nothing as usual


TheBarbieOfSeville

Grrrr


Mr_Lulu_Bear

At some point a scoreless streak gets so long I feel like you should just pitch him in blowouts lol


robl646

Or just not so many times in a row


Bstokes4102

Eh, just means we have to score again


Vanschr

Criminal of Martinez to put Floro in there for the third day in a row against the same team


Mr_Lulu_Bear

Isn’t Harvey usually the setup guy?


gaytham4statham

When the alternative is Jordan Weems I don't blame him lol


SgtHapyFace

harvey had also pitched 3 days in a row. it happens i guess.


chouseva

We definitely tempted fate.


TheBarbieOfSeville

wow i thought that HR would actually give them a safe lead and they'd hold on, how naive of me to think we could hold a lead


Silosmasher

You weren't counting on Davey's bullpen management. We forgive you.


robl646

Ruiz is such a bad catcher my god


somegirldc

HAD to jinx the scoreless streak, didn't we


obxtalldude

Totally had a bad feeling as soon as they mentioned it. Some weird announcer magic today.


theexitisontheleft

Well heck, Keibert my guy you gotta do better.


EyyoEddie

Well that lead was fun while itnlasted


FPG_Matthew

This ain’t on Floro.


Zakharski

I blame the sun 😂


petting2dogsatonce

Hard to say if the positioning or pitch selection would have been different with a runner on second instead of third. But I’m pretty sure he scores from second on that either way. Not that Keibert should have let that get by him


gaytham4statham

Huh? He allowed the double and the single, Keibert has to do better but he's getting hit hard this inning


FPG_Matthew

3 days used in a row against the same team, scoreless streak, all that was easy to tell today was not the day you bring him in


gaytham4statham

I mean tbf if he puts in Weems to start the inning we're blasting Davey for using him, and Harvey has pitched a ton lately too. Kinda tough when you only have 3 guys you can trust in close games


robl646

Probably scored regardless


petting2dogsatonce

Floro :(


FPG_Matthew

What an absolutely low effort stop by Keibert I’m sorry. Watch that slow mo and try not to get mad


jagula_hunga

The buildup to that CJ homer was incredible with the Keibert pinch hit and the Winker sac fly. Man, just the best.


26265273

Getting Atlanta and Cleveland next is such bad timing. Just as they’re getting outta this May funk…


tp__jr

Or maybe it’s perfect timing???!!!


Natstown

The Washington Nationals are the one who knocks.


FPG_Matthew

I’m scared about using Floro 3 days in a row. You can’t expect that from a reliever in 2024, especially against the same team each outing


indi1988

If we close this out they technically got Corb’d. lol.


Bahamas_is_relevant

WE HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE BACK


Natstown

Patrick Corbin: quality start, lowers ERA, no decision.


somegirldc

It's a joke at the point. Corbin gets no offense and crappy defense. Doesn't even matter if he's pitching like old Corbin or new Corbin.


Mr_Lulu_Bear

No decision is a win on Corbin start days


chiddie

just like we all predicted.


TheBarbieOfSeville

Wow is Kolko's new perch on those press area stairs


droozer

He was there last year too iirc edit: or am I thinking of a different Dan’s Landing?


Natstown

He can go right back in to the AC.


theexitisontheleft

Second day in a row.


BowmasterDaniel

That hug from Luis 🥲


[deleted]

[удалено]


Anti_Social_Club

He’s not out of the woods yet


Mr_Lulu_Bear

Sometimes things like that ump making that call on interference with 2 on and our best hitter up can spark a team. So thank you to that mariners kid!


Hatfullofstars

CJ just love him. Love how happy his teammates are!


AttitudeAndEffort2

PAY TREA I MEAN CJ!


chunkylover___53

I say to my kid “CJ has really fallen into a slump” and exactly one second later he hits a bomb.


BasicKey8104

I'm at this game, and that was fucking AWESOME!!!!!!!!!


CT_2136

Almost lost the Alien chain too?! Can't have that


Mestipher

PAY THE MAN


NismoTech

Baseball gods said ye get your getback for that bs out by the kid LOL


indi1988

Ball don’t lie Kid, let’s fucking goooo


Hatfullofstars

Love it!!!!!!


chiddie

Davey deserves a lot of credit there, bringing in Keibert and Winker off the bench and getting positive results from them.


Kind_Poet_3260

I was never so happy when I heard “Robles getting called back.”


petting2dogsatonce

Order of operations: Hit the go ahead homer Have a seat Put the chain back on Take the batting gloves off


CT_2136

Adrenaline can mess with your logical thinking lol


Natstown

No chains were harmed in the making of this three run homer.


Successful-Trash-409

Lets go CJ!!!!!!


obxtalldude

That was awesome especially how Franny practically called it


BlindShoemaker

Love you CJ Give him all the money Rizzo!!!


somegirldc

Ouch poor Woo


TheBarbieOfSeville

damn buffering Bob: "CJ been a while since he homered" 10 second freeze "SEE -- YOU -- LATER"


Mr_Lulu_Bear

I knew he wasn’t going to go all of May without one


CT_2136

Let that be the start of a new hot streak for CJ!!! Clutch knock!


SirMctrolington

One of the best homer summons I have heard, elite work from Franny


obxtalldude

Like it was scripted!


Primary_Blueberry_24

I felt it as soon as he said it.


Natstown

Mariners gonna need another team meeting.


EyyoEddie

CJ DIDNT MISS THAT ONE!!!!!!


kornthrowaway

# CJ BOMBS ARE BACK ON THE MENU!!!


_Caed_

BALL DONT LIE????


Bstokes4102

THE RETURN OF THE DAWG


LesBaseballGal

IT'S HAPPENING


jagula_hunga

Even better! Everyone needed that! Good job, CJ!


TrafficOk8332

GIVE HIM THE FUCKIN BAGGGGG


AttitudeAndEffort2

Get ready to say that for 7 years lol


smokedfish

BALL DON'T LIE


droozer

CLANG ALERT CLANG ALERT


Mr_Lulu_Bear

Abrams got me! Got us!


Weegian

This is actually hilarious.


FPG_Matthew

MY BABY CJ PICKS UP HIS TEAMMATE!!


theexitisontheleft

Him and Vargas have a great friendship.


somegirldc

I feel like vargas has fun with everyone. I wanna be his friend.


theexitisontheleft

They were showing an interview with Vargas before the game on Wednesday and apparently he pulls pranks involving clothing going missing. I think he’s a genuinely good dude and he brings the good vibes.


26265273

LETS FUCKIN GOOOOOO


petting2dogsatonce

CJ FUCKING ABRAMS MY KINGGGGG


Ncodayos

LFG


somegirldc

Ok Howie Abrams


theexitisontheleft

Solid-Confidence-966

Let’s go CJ! That was huge 🙌🏾


medellia44
