mets at nats april 12 (nats lose 3-1)
Alfie Soriano continues to be an enigma to me.
One minute, he makes a pretty good running catch in left field. ALFIE YOU'RE MY HERO! I bellow in appreciation.
The next, he doesn't even bother to make an effort for a playable ball which drops for a double. ALFIE, QUIT LOLLYGAGGIN' OUT THERE I bark.
What's it gonna be, Alfie-boy? What's it gonna be? Nats fans everywhere want to know.
Oh, the rest of the game. Yeah:
Tony Armas is not a great starter. Good middle relief, maybe. But he just ran out of gas tonight. The bullpen wasn't great, either. Majewski wasn't terribly pitch-efficient--but it might have just seemed that way, since we were behind.
Hitting? Guys, if you've got bases loaded with nobody out on Pedro, SCORE. First Vidro strikes out, then Guillen hits into a double-play. The pain.
Also--I wish Metro would do something about transportation from nats games. The metro TO the stadium is OK, but getting home is just murder. I wish there were something like an express bus from RFK to Metro Center: that would speed things up nicely.
