If the Winston-Salem Dash miss the postseason by one game, they’re gonna point to this contest… and they’re gonna be pissed. The Potomac Nationals will be listed as the 4-3 winners, but got the benefit of a controversial call. With one out in the 9th, the Dash’s Nick Ciolli doubled to left-center and took third …

Looking over my Twitter feed, I’ve discovered that the site has been nominated for CBS Washington’s Most Valuable Blogger Awards 2011.
So either my 87-year-old Mom has suddenly gotten tech-savvy, or somebody likes what we’re doing here.

But that’s okay — vote anyway and check out some of the other blogs in the area. And thanks for getting us noticed.
