On Friday night passed, the Nationals of Washington, District of Columbia, began a three-game weekend series with the Brave Warriors of Atlanta, Georgia, who have long been the standard-bearer of quality NL East standard, though current situation may be an aberration from that. And this has continued to be a season of wondering, "Will these Nats score a fuckin' run or not?" so of course they fell behind 2-0 early on, Gio Gonazalez being Gio out there (which is unpredictable, sometimes shaky, but all-in-all hard not to like). However in the 4th, they got one back. Then in 6th, TWO RUN BLAST by The Ultimate Harper gave the Nats the lead. Would it hold? Or would they fuck it up? Bear in mind, this was a team trying to reach .500 for only the second time this season, and the previous time initiated a 6-game losing streak.
Well, I'm glad to say it held. They added a cushion run in the 7th, and then in the 8th they blasted for 5 runs led off by a 3-run homer by The Ultimate Harper (giving him 5 HRs in his last two games at that point), and shit man they coasted through the top of the 9th to get back to .500. BACK TO FUCKING .500.
Nats were 15-15.
