A dream deferred is not a dream denied. And tonight, the Nationals followed through on the promise of a second consecutive 100-loss season.
Rafael Furcal's homerun in the eighth inning Thursday night propelled the Dodgers to a 7-6 over Washington. The Nationals fell to 52-100 and became the first NL franchise to lose 100 games in consecutive seasons since the Padres did it in 1973 and 1974 (The Nats were 59-102 last season).
To give an even dire framework to how bad the franchise has been since coming to D.C., in five seasons in Washington, the Nationals already have matched the number of 100-loss seasons the franchise had during its 36 seasons as the Montreal Expos.
