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 3, 2018 – Nats 3, Pirates 1 – Nationals Park


 
Attendance: 30,434
Duration: 2:42
Weather: 87 degrees, Clear
Wind: 12 MPH Right to Left
Umpires: HP: Chad Fairchild. 1B: Bruce Dreckman. 2B: Mike Estabrook. 3B: Eric Cooper.
 
Section 220, Row D, Seats 11-12 – club level was a good choice this afternoon, as we were out of the sun on an unseasonably hot day, and were able to spend a couple innings in the air-conditioned lounge behind the seating area
 
Game notes – after scoring 12 and 9 runs the previous 2 games, Nats eked out the win despite getting only 4 hits …  continuing the season-long avoidance of having Hellickson face opposing batters more than twice, Dave lifted him with 2 out and 1 on in the 6th, with the game scoreless, after only 61 pitches … Washington scored its only runs of the game in the bottom of the frame (Difo single, homers by Turner and Zimmerman), giving Solis the win after he relieved Hellickson and retired Gregory Polanco on one pitch … after Madson got into a bases-loaded one-out jam in the 8th (an error on a double-play ball didn’t help), Doolittle was summoned to get the final 5 outs
