>6-14

bleh more RISP woes
poor bum getting the cain treatment

>1 for 8 with RISP
MadBum's gonna leave this team and look somewhere else for run support.

I'm hungover from going out in public and drinking with friends, instead of shitposting from a basement while my team hopes for a wild card spot
>1988

He's taking his talents to south beach

>lineup
Putting Nuñez in front of a cold bat. What a waste.

FUCK

Welp

Time for a bum to give up a solo dinger and lose going 8 inn 2 hit 1 er

The curse of Matt Cain.

Bich really needs to figure this lineup out

>Span grounds into a force out
>Can't even bunt and beat it out, either
>If not, Pagan could have scored Bum
>Belt's could have been a sac fly
Thanks a lot Denard!

Why is he still batting lead-off anyway?

>7th inning solo
are you a wizard?

Lmao

RAMOS

WELP

Nope

That's just what happens pretty much every single Bumgarner start when he gets no run support.

Now for tomorrow, or whenever Cueto pitches, they'll score him like 5+ runs. You can pretty much mark it down too

>small ball
They were doing it yesterday with a lot of hustle

When Bum is pitching, the offense forgets to play that way. Compound that with a SHIT lineup; with his speed, Nuñez should be lead-off. And even without the injury, it's Pence's day-off, which means Blanco's cold bat will be in the lineup anyway.

Nunez and Span should've been switched desu, and that would've been fine

It's deja vu all over again.

I miss Tim Flannery. He would have sent Buster home in the 4th inning.

Now i understand why Bumgarner's not smiling in his picture

He's seen the future and realizes there's nothing he can do to fix the fucking offense when he's on the mound

Bottom 3 are due up in the 9th

Is Bochy mad enough to let Bumgarner hit for himself

All he has to do is pitch a shutout and hit a homerun.

On to Miami for 3 games ...

Next game is tomorrow at 7:10 PM ET | 4:10 PM PT

I blame the coaching staff for this game.

gg nats

Lose a 2-hitter because your team can't score a single fucking run. Ouch.

nice series nats. see you in october maybe :^)

also,

g-go red sox
