Same lineup as yesterday except Wong is catching.

Playing fantasy baseball. Why not Have refs play for Duran and bat Narvaez at DH. Give Duran a day off.

8 right handed bats.

Or not.

Who??  Has even the most knowledgeable baseball fan ever heard of Ogasawara?  Is it true that this guy was delivering food to the Nat's clubhouse this morning and they signed hm to pitch today?

Easy Den.  It's a favorable matchup, but it's baseball.

It's a travesty on baseball. I tried to place a bet on the Sox, but my bookie, Paul " Needle Nose" Minagge just laughed and walked away.

Eloquent.  Almost haiku.

The average line on the Sox right now is about -250.  So you'd have to bet $250 to win $100.

Is Eaton some sort of under-the-radar long-term prospect? Why is he even playing? Leading off? We're sitting Mayer ... FFS, isn't he our future? The best we can do this year is sneak into the wildcard and lose that or the first series. We should be playing for the next few years. Rant over, haha. 

[Hitch]

Oh I am liking this version of Story

[Nick]

I like it that we have speed. Maybe he can play 2B. Played in OF yesterday.

This is one of strangest rain delays I’ve ever seen. The forecast said no rain and the sun is out but it just started pouring out of nowhere at nationals stadium. I’m here in person and don’t get how this even happened. It’s sunny but pouring for some reason. 

[Jasonbay44]

I have a feeling it’ll be short delay. Tarp is already coming off field

Game resuming at 2:15

Thankfully that it isn't long enough to burn Crochet.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Sox were in the right place, but it must've been the Wong time.

[Jasonbay44]

Crochet giving up a lot of hard hit balls and falling behind a lot of hitters 

[FredLynn]

Duran playing little league ball. What a bunch of BUMS!

[FredLynn]

Duran held up on that bloop. He should have charged it hard. He could have caught it. 
You give a team five outs and you’re likely to lose.

There was no way he was catching that. It was hit in pure no mans land

I disagree 

It was catchable with a good effort. He slowed down waiting for Story to try to catch it.

[FredLynn]

Eaton bounces a routine grounder on the throw to first. It’s no wonder these bums never make the playoffs anymore.

Sox giving him runs to work with lately and Crochet all of a sudden lately has turned into a middle of the rotation pitcher.

I believe it's all part of being a .500 team.

That and committing the second highest number of errors in baseball this year after leading the league for the previous couple of years.

We are done scoring ever since piece of crap Wong kept his streak of leaving runners in scoring position for 22nd time.

Arguably the worst offensive player in MLB, excluding pitchers.
