I've only made it to two games this year (one in June and today's), but they're undefeated. I usually make three or four games a year and have only seen one loss (last year's home finale vs. the dreaded Phillies).

Finally picked up the old ticket stubs and figured out I was 2 - 6 this year. I was well above .500 the past 2 years. I think my 2009 (about 11 games and only one or 2 losses) was weirder than my 2011.

3-1 at games. I was undefeated until I decided to go to the game against San Diego this year where Strasburg had the bad start and the "Icy Hot" fiasco. Hell, if it wasn't for Harper I would have seen a blank for the Nats.

Coincidentally, last time I went to a game that Strasburg started, it was when he got pulled for elbow problems against the Braves and (I believe) Batista started in his stead. Still beat the Braves 3-0, but I think that was his last intended start before he was out for a long time.

Someone will have to fact check my memory, but the moral of the story is I should not attend games where Strasburg pitches. Bad things happen.
