Gratuitous Nats Posting (TM)
What is it with my beloved Nats? They're two completely different teams at home and on the road.
Too bad for all those citizens of Natstown who came down to see Wonderboy pitch last evening, but those boo-birds in the stands can stuff it. The decision to scratch Strasburg at the last instant because he couldn't get loose was the right call. And what a game Batista and the bullpen served up!
The Nats should hang on to Dunn. Ditto with Willingham. (Get out of here, Boston!)
UPDATE: I love Batista's own comment on the boo-birds:
Batista said he understood the fans' reaction. "Imagine if you go there to see Miss Universe - and you end up having Miss Iowa," he said.
Heh. If Miss Iowa could throw front door and back door stuff like that, I don't care what she'd look like.

No response from Batista yet.
