Times<\/i><br \/>Once again, the Nats found another disappointing way to lose. <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Shairon Martis<\/span> gave the Nats seven innings of 2-run ball, but the offense could not get any runs across. Then, in the ninth, the Reds closer <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Francisco Cordero<\/span> walked <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Elijah Dukes<\/span>. With <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Josh Willingham<\/span> at the plate, the storm came and 2 hours and 10 minutes later, play resumed with Willingham getting a free pass. <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Josh Bard<\/span> and Anderson Hernandez singled both of them home, but Washington was done scoring for the night. In the 12th inning, <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Ron Villone<\/span> gave up his first run as a National and the game was decided, but no before Jason Bergmann allowed another. The Nats came up dry in the bottom of the inning and another tough loss was in the books. Only 75 or 100, depending on which paper you read, stayed until the end.<\/p>\n<p>If you were watching at home though, you probably missed the rally though. As <a href=\"http:\/\/voices.washingtonpost.com\/dcsportsbog\/2009\/06\/nationals_television_fail.html\"><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">DC Sports Bog reports<\/span><\/a>, Cox and Comcast subscribers were switched to C-SPAN 2 following the rain delay. The game was on MASN 2 which uses the C-SPAN 2 slot. The two cable systems screwd up, but ultimately the big screwup is <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Peter Angelos<\/span> owning the Nats TV rights. Again, if the Nats TV rights were not controlled by a Baltimore concern that voted against D.C. baseball and kept games from fans for almost two full seasons, this does not happen.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/website_3c1e0e40\/graphics\/technorati.gif\" border=\"0\">  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/WashingtonNationals\" rel=\"tag\">Washington Nationals<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/nats\" rel=\"tag\">Nats<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/CincinnatiReds\" rel=\"tag\">Cincinnati Reds<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/MASN\" rel=\"tag\">MASN<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\">&copy;MMX William F.
