I don't think this gets to a game 7, but it would be great theater if it did, as Scherzer just threw in the outfield and told reporters "I'm good" afterwards.
That would be incredibly exciting. The fact that I would be on an airplane over Africa/the Atlantic for all of it would drive me insane.

I've always been a Stephen Strasburg fan since game one, I really hope he can come through tonight. But even if he does, it might not matter. I don't have much hope for a game 7, but boy would it be some high drama. Fingers crossed!

Davey Martinez confirms that Scherzer would start a game 7, and Suzuki would be back for that also.

They were on a roll in Houston, then they scored three runs in three games at home.

It's a mystery to me, looking for answers is all, they're running out of time.
As for the Nats bats going silent at home, even the Sox last year had 2 or 3 games a couple or 3 times when they couldn’t hit. Never lost more than 3 in a row though.

could have really used a solid XBH...

can Strasburg go 7 scoreless? probably not the way the Astros have been patient

Put a fork in the Nats. They are who we thought they were. 3 hours and 5 days until the JD opt out deadline.
