As a fan of a wide variety of popular (and not-so-popular) music from the 1950s (and sometimes even earlier) up through the present, one of my bucket list projects for years has been to put together a list of my 100 favorite songs of all time. At some point I decided that, once I got around to figuring that out, I could put it out on a blog, for the infinitesimally small proportion of the Internet world that might be interested. So, here we are. While the Top 100 will be a major focus, I also plan to post on a variety of other musical (and occasionally non-musical) topics, in which you may or may not be interested. (If a particular posting doesn’t ring your bell, you’re only a few clicks away from a dancing cat video on YouTube.)

May 10, 2015 – Nationals 5, Braves 4 – Nationals Park


http://m.nationals.mlb.com/news/article/123524096/wilson-ramos-caps-nationals-rally-in-8th-to-edge-braves
 
Umpires: HP: Jim Reynolds. 1B: Manny Gonzalez. 2B: Paul Schrieber. 3B: Fieldin Culbreth.
Weather: 80 degrees, cloudy.
Wind: 4 mph, Out to CF.
T: 2:51.
Att: 31,938.
Seventh-inning stretch song: I Can’t Help Myself – The Four Tops
 
Highlights – 3-run Nats first inning, featuring a mere double to deep center by Bryce Harper … 2-run game-winning rally by Nats in bottom of the eighth (Desmond single, Werth walk, Zimmerman single, Ramos double) … scoreless top of the eighth by Sammy Solis to get his first major-league win … 1-2-3 ninth by Storen to save it and win everyone Chick-Fil-A sandwiches
 
Other – Nats (Uggla, Werth, Ramos) made 3 unnecessary outs on the bases … Jordan Zimmermann struggled with his command all day, making the Nats 3-run lead vanish by the middle of the third, and giving up 3 hits to Atlanta starter Alex Wood (matching his previous career hit total) … despite Zimmermann’s problems, Matt Williams let him lead off the bottom of the fifth, despite being at the 90-pitch mark
