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.)

August 5, 2018 – Nats 2, Reds 1 – Nationals Park


https://www.mlb.com/nationals/news/tanner-roark-goes-7-nats-win-series-vs-red/c-289018082
 
Attendance: 33,486
Duration: 2:39
Weather: 90 degrees, Partly Cloudy
Wind: 5 MPH, L to R
Umpires: HP: Jeff Nelson. 1B: Chad Whitson. 2B: Manny Gonzalez. 3B: Andy Fletcher.
 
Game notes – the Nats scored their only runs early, on a second-inning HR by Matt Wieters and a two-out RBI double by Harper an inning later … Tanner Roark had another strong outing, lasting 7 innings after surviving a 4th inning that started with 4 straight singles … Madson and Herrera finished things off by retiring all 6 batters they faced
 
Other – the actual crowd appeared to be significantly smaller than the announced attendance on an extremely hot, humid afternoon … our old go-to parking area was fenced off due to impending demolition/construction, so apparently we will need to find somewhere else
