I was really hoping either Harper or Werth would get the winning hit, but I'm very happy Ramos was able to drive it in.

I'm all about the Nats beating anyone, but wins always feel a little bit sweeter when it's against the Phillies.

Nats v. Phillies to me is like Skins v. Cowboys.

Terrible night all around for the Nats, so the Orioles hold the best record in baseball. Hopefully the Nats can quickly recover

I truly am a jinx. The year I decide to finally abandon the O's for my hometown Nats, the O's have the best record in baseball and the Nats are dropping like flies.

I heard Morse will be back in June though, that should help.

Only took 17 innings for the Orioles to win today.

Every time I've visited Angel Stadium, the O's have lost in some devastating fashion. The last one I went to (a few years back), Vlad hit a walk off in extra innings (when he was still an Angel). So to prevent the jinx, I've since stayed home.

I did get the best baseball experience in my life at that stadium... a buddy had box seats and I got to watch a pitcher's duel. Erickson was on the mound for Baltimore and I think Weaver for Anaheim.

Pretty shitty that Coles threw at Harper for being a 19 year old in MLB. Got 5 game suspension for it, but how does that really hurt a pitcher? He rests for 5 days to begin with. Should make it 10 games so that way he'll be missing a start.

Yeah I went to the game last night, disappointing to say the least. I'm more concerned about Jayson Werth's broken wrist though, it just seems we are getting all these key injuries at inopportune times. Zimmerman comes back, Werth breaks his wrist. Hopefully LaRoche will be back soon too, we could use him.

Werth broke his wrist, out at least 6 weeks.

Bum was just starting to heat up too. (on my fantasy team)



BUT...Bryce stole home!

Werth will be out at least 4 months. Time for Tyler Moore to shine

4 months? Jesu H. Christie! I thought they diagnosed it as 4-6 weeks?

They did earlier!

I broke my wrist and had to have it repaired with a plate and screws and it put me out of commission for WAY over 6 weeks.

Lol yeah that's what I get for believing the first thing I hear. Oh well. At least we're getting Zimmerman and LaRoche back.

[SmootSmack]

Well LaRoche and Ryan Z. should be back this week, hopefully tomorrow.

I think Zimm will be back tomorrow from everything I've heard. LaRoche shouldn't be too far behind.
