Well, by the second game of this three game series, it was shaping up as a rout in favor of the Dodgers but the Nationals woke up on Thursday and realized they had a baseball game to go to. I have to admit, Tuesday’s game (especially the outfielding) was just so pitiful I actually felt sorry for the Nationals and was hoping that they could at least get a run or two so that they wouldn’t lose all taste for the game. I was surprised to see them rally on Thursday and beat the pants off the boys in blue.
There is some potential for hotness on the Nationals’ team, in the form of Ryan Zimmerman. Now, success isn’t always a cuteness guarantee, but it rarely hurts. Z-man delivered the goods with that dogged intensity that’s always an attention getter. I googled his name looking for photos and what was the first link that turned up? A gay sports board with a men-of-baseball appreciation thread, which included a frank appraisal of the Zimmerman sex appeal. Glad to know I’m not the only one.
Note to Nationals: Get rid of those tacky puppet-headed mascots. They are not helping you in your drive to be taken seriously.
