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.)

September 29, 2017 – Nats 6, Pirates 1 – Nationals Park


http://m.nationals.mlb.com/news/article/256740958/stephen-strasburg-nationals-defeat-pirates/
 
Attendance: 36,339
Duration: 3:06
Weather: 72 degrees, Clear
Wind: 5 MPH Out to Center
Umpires: HP: Paul Nauert. 1B: Carlos Torres. 2B: Chris Guccione. 3B: Dana DeMuth.
 
Section 312, Row D, Seats 11-13 – great seats, two sections closer to home plate than our regular location
 
Notes – almost a replay of our last game: dominant performance by Strasburg, 2 homers by Zim, close game early until the Nats’ offense finally arrived … but cooler and earlier-ending, with a lot more people, presumably due largely to the beer stein giveaway (which we arrived too late to get) … Stras only allowed 2 hits in 7⅔ innings, retiring the first 14 batters and not allowing a runner past second base … Nats scored a run in the first on singles by Rendon and Murphy and Zim’s double … added 3 in the 6th, capped by Zim’s 2-run HR, and 2 in the 8th on back-to-back solo shots by Zimmerman (who had 2 doubles in addition to his 2 round-trippers) and Werth
