Hey, I really think there's more than one of us here. Two! Possibly even 2.5, when you consider people who have the Nats as their NL team and are more AL fans.

The offense, Harper excepted, was pretty dead that whole series, despite being much better on paper. I think some of it had to do with the scheduling - both WC teams made it to the World Series, and a lot of teams that clenched early were eliminated early because they basically iced the teams for several days prior to the playoffs starting, which after clenching early meant they hadn't played any real baseball in a couple of weeks, and had had a scrimmage the day before where it was clear they were already rusty. I think a lot of other teams fell to a similar fate.

Some of it was the Giants knowing how to play in the post-season, whereas the Nats had one pretty spectacularly bad post season series (oh, let's not talk about Game 5 of NLDS 2015) in their (non-Expos) franchise history, and some of it was poor bullpen management from a manager who was, surprise, fired the next year for ludicrously bad bullpen management.

So, a mix of shitty things and the only thing I can remember other than that 19-inning game was Harper trying to hit it out of the park in SF. Oh, and taking creep shots of Tim Lincecum sitting in the visitors' bullpen for a friend. He spits constantly even for a ball player.

I ... didn't do fantasy last winter, so I'm not sure who you're thinking of. The friend is no longer in hockey (or any AFAIK) fandom, so maybe we're thinking of the same person. I can code their user name in baseball stats if that helps, lol.

SA

It probably is the same person, though, if she has a new superstar fave in hockey who you likely hate.

That reminds me, didn't he hit it out of the park? At least, it feels like he hit approx. 50+ homeruns off Strickland. Maybe that wasn't at SF though.

That he did. He kept trying (and not succeeding, but at least trying) after that.
