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.)

June 13, 2016 – Nationals 4, Cubs 1 – Nationals Park


 
Attendance: 37,187
Game Time: 2:44
Weather: 80 degrees, partly cloudy
Wind: 6 mph
Umpires: Home Plate - Dan Iassogna, First Base - Dale Scott, Second Base - Bob Davidson, Third Base - Lance Barrett
 
Highlights – led by Max Scherzer’s 7 dominant innings, Nats pitchers retired 27 of 29 Cubs (2 hits, 0 walks, 16 Ks) … Scherzer fanned 9 of the first 10 batters … Nats drew first blood in the bottom of the third on a one-out Werth walk followed by a Harper single, on which Werth headed for third and scored when Fowler’s throw got past Kris Bryant … after the Cubs briefly tied it with an Addison Russell HR in the top of the sixth, the Nats answered back with 3 in the bottom of the inning, starting with a Wilson Ramos leadoff homer that went off Jason Heyward’s glove directly to Sammy Solis in the Nats’ bullpen
 
Other – perfect day for baseball … smooth Metro trip down, wandered around the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail and ate at TaKorean for the first time this season
