Of course, the only reason I really care is if we make it to the Fall Classic.

One must be careful to avoid actually caring about all the BS that Bud Selig wants us to care about. Things like as World Series home field advantage coming out of the All Star game, a second wild card team/play-in game, last-chance All Star vote-ins. There must be more.

I hope Mooney's having a good time.

What's there not to love about a 7 run inning?

The weather was fine, unfortunately.

Puig was a no-show as was Zimmerman (our starting pitcher). On the plus side I ended up with seats right next to first base so I had the chance to exchange "Hey's" with Davy Lopes. That was cool.

I'm always conflicted when the Dodgers play the Nats so I would have liked a closer game.

Oh, and Puig did show up for the bottom of the 9th. So I did get to see him field a couple of balls at least.

Well, he wasn't officially a Dodger until a nagging injury resulted in a precipitous drop in production. Welcome to the club! Viva Yasiel!

I haven't seen that many players LOB in a series since....well since the first couple months of this season.

Exciting news, With Harpers first walk off home run the Nats have managed to work their win streak back up to one. Woot.

If someone told me before the weekend that Cain, Bumgarner and Lincecum would pitch seven, eight and seven innings; give up one, zero and two runs, have a K/BB ratio of 7/1, 7/2 and 10/2, and yet the Giants would get swept by the Cubs, I . . .

probably would have believed it.

Not sure how I feel about the impending beard-cult influx.

Sounds like he impressed the scouts, throwing around 90-93 and hitting his locations. If he can return to a semblance of his former self, I think we can use his experience (especially his post-season experience) in the pen. I expect him to significantly outperform Marmol and League.

Besides, we didn't give anyone up and it's a pretty no-risk situation.

Now he just needs to dye the beard blue.

If I were Wilson, I would shave the beard until I had earned it back. That would, in its way, be its own act of showmanship.
