What in the world is going on in washington . Im not talking about the president ial race. But the race, in the nl east. The phillies can all but concede, they have lost five straight to the nationals and they are now a season worst nine games out of first place.

Glove save. Freddie galvis. They only get one. Nationals rally continues. They bat around in the second, michael keller, rbi single, three to nothing. Very next batter bryce harper with the rbi single. Yeah. Nola allows four runs in the second. He is pulled before the end of the fourth. It is it shortest start of his career.

That is what we you want to see with your starting quarterback. With a guy that has said, it took sometime to evaluate the situation and then to come back and say hey, you know what, maybe it is okay. He is just a class act, he is a great guy. I think im enclose tore him now then i was before. I give him a lot of credit for handling it the way that he did. Clint dempsey and u. S. Soccer team only needed a point to the advance to the quarter finals of the copa america but that is not the point. They are not the playing parquay at the link for only a draw but they are playing to win. They are kicking and screaming for a u. S. A. Soccer at the link tonight, pick it up, 27th minute, great set up for clint dempsey, how about the one timer. Good, goal. That is enough. One to nothing. Red, white and blue protect that lead despite multiple, yellow cards, eightysecond minute, brad guston with back to back saves. U. S. A. Wins, they advance to the quarter finals. They won five of their last six matches. More sports next, but first we will kick it to break. Dont you just love it
