You notice markj that Barnes got them quickly in a one-two-three inning while Taylor in the 7th walked his first and third batter sandwiched between a double play?  Or that Ottovino, the Yankee reject, hit his first batter he faced.  What the hell is wrong with these guys?  They nibble, nibble and nibble some more.  Either that or they are not warmed up properly when they come into a game.  Or maybe nibbling is all they know.  It is sickening.  As for the crow make a dish for the Mongo man if he really has to shed a few but maybe send a bowl or two dto those other two dunes with instructions on how to get that damned first man out.  Barnes has made me eat crow too.  Somehow he has found it and we can be thankful for whatever he found.  A good win  today and three straight from the Orioles.  Maybe we can slam the door tomorrow and sweep them.  Brad Hand, who i have never liked, cost the Nats another game today with his second blown relief appearance in two days.  Just think if we had signed him and not given Barnes his last chance to show what he could do.
