FMJRA 2.0: Still Winning

— compiled by Wombat-socho Well, that went better than I thought it would. We played the Daytraders last Sunday and took two games out of three; we lost the opener to Vida Blue but won game 2 in extra innings on an RBI single by Tom Grieve, and in game three we pounded Larry Gura […]

FMJRA 2.0: Harvey Dent Week

— compiled by Wombat-socho The Senators went 3-3 this week, sweeping the hapless A’s before going to Minneapolis and getting swept by the division-leading Twins, who we are now trailing by 9.5 games. We’re facing the Daytraders tonight and the Tribe on Friday, so I’m not too optimistic about this week. We’ll see what happens. […]

FMJRA 2.0: Better Late Than Never

— compiled by Wombat-socho Pretty sick this weekend but I slept for about 12 hours last night and now I only feel half as miserable. The Senators took two out of three from Pittsburgh and Boston last week, so now we’re 44-52, tied with Pete’s Brewers for second in the division, 5.5 games behind the […]

FMJRA 2.0: One Big Crunch

— compiled by Wombat-socho SOTW After the last couple of weeks, this was a particularly bad week to be a Senators fan. First we got swept by the Cardinals at Busch Stadium, and then we came home to get whipped by the Expos, winning only one game: a comeback against Paul Lindblad that earned Roger […]

FMJRA 2.0: Too Good To Be True?

— compiled by Wombat-socho It was another great week to be a Senators fan. Not only did we take two of three against the hapless Dodgers – the sole loss coming at the hands of Don Sutton, who held us to three runs while the Dodgers scratched out four – but we went on to […]

FMJRA 2.0: Suddenly, A Winning Week

— compiled by Wombat-socho It was a good week to be a Senators fan. First, we rose up and defeated the Expos in two games of our three game series, including a 4-run 10th inning rally (featuring a two-run homer by The Human Rain Delay) that won the game for Roger Nelson in relief of […]

FMJRA 2.0: Still Stuck In The Ruts

— compiled by Wombat-socho It was another .500 week for the home team – we lost two of three to the Cardinals, and it would have been a sweep except for a six-run rally in the sixth against Orlando Pena, which gave Jim Kaat his first win in relief. The shoe was on the other […]

FMJRA 2.0: On An Even Keel

— compiled by Wombat-socho Well, it could have been worse – we could have spent another week in the ruts. As it was, we lost two of three to the Angels in Anaheim, one of them a heartbreaking 7-3 loss in which Charlie Hough blew the lead and the game by horking up six runs […]
