Tonight's Game Against the Nats 4/30

MaineBucs · Post by **MaineBucs** » Mon Apr 30, 2018 8:11 pm

I have been away from the Board during the recent glorious run of wins against the Tigers and yes, the Cardinals, but did have a chance to catch most on the TV.

Great to see Kingham pitch so so well in his debut. Always good to see Cardinal hitters look hapless and to run the bases so foolishly; particularly when almost no one even made it to first.

Hoping that James Tallion can turn it around tonight and pitch like he did at the beginning of the season instead of how he has done the last 2 games.

I also saw the following headline on a national website ---

"Harper fed up after getting intentionally walked"

Harper being P.O.'d sounds great to me. So Clint & James, if no one is on base when he comes up in the first, or there is a runner on second, give him a free pass down to first.

Sure would be great to take 3 of 4 from the Nats.

Gotta say Mainer, if they lose tonite we can just blame you for starting the game thread I guess.

Hope you enjoyed being away from OBN and fun whatever you were doing.

Rodriguez is batting third and playing CF.

Harper did congratulate Kingham on Twitter since they are both from Las Vegas.

I read an article recently about how frustrated Harper got when Cubs walked him 13 times in 19 appearances in a series (or something like that ratio). No need to let his bat beat the Bucs.
