Bad situation avoided, Byrd caught it.

Where did the explosive offense go? I hope we didn't use up all those hits against Milwaukee. Kind of shocking to see Soriano walking 3 times though. Been a good game so far.

04-27-10 Gamethread (Nationals @ Cubs 7:05 PM CST)

Washington Nationals @ Chicago Cubs

115817.jpg

Livan Hernandez (2-1 0.75 ERA)

vs.

452733.jpg

Tom Gorzelanny (0-2 2.40 ERA)​

Look for the Nationals to have the pitching advantage tonight, though it may be a slim advantage. Livan Hernandez seems to have rejuvenated his career, coming into the 2010 season, having lost close to 30 pounds. His velocity is up, and his sinker is staying down. If the weather is anything like last night, it should be a good night for Hernandez to lower that sparkling ERA.

Tom Gorzelanny's record is more from a lack of run production than his shortcomings. Tom has pitched very well for the Cubs. The weather should keep the ball in the park if he has trouble locating his offspeed stuff.

Lineups should be available later in the day.

I don't wanna see Capps. If there is one thing Livan Hernandez does well, it's eating innings. He goes out and keeps his team in games at a high rate. He often goes 6-7 innings pitched and allows 3-4 runs per start. Not overly dominant, but if every team had 2 starters like Livan, they'd be very content...

If Livan goes 8 IP and allows 3-4 runs and has a lead, Capps should finish us off. He's 8/8 in saves...
