Here's Chris Needham on last night's Nats-A's game:
Nick Johnson had the big hit. Again. He unloaded the bases with a shot that just went over the head of Mark Kotsay. Kotsay catches that ball 9 times out of 10. But, last night, for some reason, he took the great circle route for the ball, perhaps in search of the northwest passage to Bethesda.
Sounds like Kotsay hit that nasty ice flow just before River Road.
…and now for something completely different. How about Cliff Floyd. His walk off homer last night nearly took down the scoreboard. Let’s Go Mets!
