For Armas and Nats, Latest Loss Is the Status Woe<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i>
Tony Armas, Jr.<\/span> started last night by giving up 2 runs and throwing around 40 pitches in the opening frame. By the 4th he was gassed and wound up being pulled after 3 1\/3 innings having given up 5 runs. The bullpen faired no better. Final score Fleas 10 Nats 6<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Two highlights for Nats fans — Alfonso Soriano’s<\/span> 42 homer and Ryan Zimmerman’s<\/span> 2-run triple.<\/p>\n

In the seventh, I said “if Saul Rivera<\/span> can’t get Abraham N\u00fa\u00f1ez<\/span> (batting a Guzman esque .198) out, I’m leaving” and sure enough Nunez was safe on a Jose Vidro<\/span> error. Fritz and I walked out right there.<\/p>\n

1B Ryan Howard<\/span> hit another homer, which is apparently a big deal<\/span><\/a> (The Inky<\/span>) for all those people cheering the visitors. By the way, there were a lot of Phightins fans there last night. They were incrediblely well behaved though, maybe it was because Santa Claus was not around to boo. The win put Philly 1\/2 game back in the wild card and more importantly tied up the season series. The Nats now have five chances to win three games to clinch my cheesesteak.<\/p>\n

The game was not a total loss — I learned the correct pronounciation of dl004d<\/span><\/a>; I had previously thought it was “dee el double-o four dee,” but it turns out it is “dee el zero zero four dee.”<\/p>\n

One other thing that I would like to learn is the name of the song that played when there was a conference at the mound in the 6th when Chase Utley<\/span> was up. It’s jazzy piece that easily becomes an earworm, but I have no idea what it is called. Anybody know the song?<\/p>\n

Sweet! The Nats get to start the 2007 season at home, restoring for at least one year the tradition of a Washington opener. They better get the president this time.<\/p>\n

Also, the team took infield practice yesterday. It did not seem to help Vidro.<\/p>\n
