NATS (54-36) BETTER THAN METS YESTERDAY

 Gio Gonzalez 
 shaky perhaps, but held his 
 his together well 

 Daniel Murphy home run helps 
 destroy his former team's hopes 

NATS (53-36) BETTER THAN METS TWO DAYS AGO

 Maximum Scherzer 
 remains pretty amazing, 
 striking out mass fools 

 also Daniel Murphy is 
 pretty swell ball player too 

NATS (52-36) BETTER THAN METS THREE DAYS AGO

 Stephen Strasburg is 
 an unstoppable force of 
 dominant presence 

 (I hope he doesn't break in 
 half before October though) 

NATS (51-36) WORSE THAN METS FOUR DAYS AGO

 the Mets used pitchers 
 with the last names "Bastardo" 
 and "Familia" 

 this comedy helps lighten 
 Luke Giolito's failures 

NATS (51-35) BETTER THAN BREWERS FIVE DAYS AGO

 Ultimate Harper 
 smashed himself a first inning 
 homer, with two on 

 offense continued smashing 
 enough to keep cushioned lead 

NATS (50-35) WORSE THAN BREWERS SIX DAYS AGO

 another shitty 
 Gio Gonzalez start - this 
 has become common 

 and yet how can you not love 
 scruffy smiling Nat Gio? 

NATS (50-34) WORSE THAN BREWERS SEVEN DAYS AGO

 capital city 
 team called Nationals - 4th of 
 July holiday 

 only thing that can beat us? 
 alcoholism (Brewers) 

NATS (50-33) BETTER THAN REDS EIGHT DAYS AGO

 return of Strasborg 
 of course equals another 
 superlative win 

 11 wins to 0 
 losses - epic beginning 

NATS (49-33) WORSE THAN REDS NINE DAYS AGO

 Joe Ross got hammered, 
 and then the bullpen did too; 
 HOLIDAY WEEKEND! 

 nothing's more American 
 than getting lit with fireworks 

NATS (49-32) BETTER THAN REDS TEN DAYS AGO

 TEN DAYS OF BASEBALL 
 LOST TO WHIRLWIND REAL LIFE SHIT; 
 I wouldn't say "lost" 

 there's reasons this game appeals 
 to statistical dorks - slow

NATS (48-32) BETTER THAN REDS LAST NIGHT

 Gio still gave up 
 4 runs, but also offense 
 smashed back for 13 

 I love Gio Gonzalez; 
 he has Power of Lounge look 

NATS (47-32) BETTER THAN METS TWO DAYS AGO

 Maximum Scherzer 
 does not fuck around; went out 
 up by 4 long runs 

 bullpen gave back two (uh oh!) 
 but held on; bitch Mets got swept 

NATS (46-32) BETTER THAN METS THREE DAYS AGO

 "Lucky" Lucas F. 
 Giolito makes first start, 
 appeared competent 

 rain delay ended his day 
 early, but Nats still blanked Mets 

NATS (45-32) BETTER THAN METS FOUR DAYS AGO

 a thorough crushing 
 of divisional rival 
 Metropolitans 

 Daniel Murphy dominates 
 all realms of this sport of dorks
