"It's not going to be easy to go to bed. I just lost the game because you just want to do nothing but help the team. By going out there and walking those two guys, it's kind of tough, but it goes away. It doesn't go away right away, like now, but later on it will." (Julian Tavarez, via Nationals dot com, 7/8/2009)
Unbelievable. Loss #57 takes the cake.
Rockies 5, Nuts 4: This one had it all: bad/goofy defense (3 more errors), bad pitching, bad/goofy base running, bad situational hitting.
Just when you think you've seen everything...and the scary thing is, with another 81 games to go, they may yet invent new ways to lose.
Julian Tavarez deservedly takes the loss, walking two in the 8th; LA Joe Beimel botches easy DP ball by throwing to... the wrong guy.
