Strasburg devours Stitches and Cubs

- stitches@nypost.com

“By the way, everyone wanted to be here today.”... NHL champion Pittsburgh Penguins at the White House on Tuesday. With invitation­s being tossed in the waste basket lately President Trump seemed quite appreciati­ve. “They’re true champions and incredible patriots.” he gushed, hoping his words would make their way to the Bay Area. Prez calling the Sidney Crosby-Evgeni Malkin duo a “two-headed monster.” Ironically those “incredible patriots” happen to be Canadian and Russian. ... Members of the U.S. men’s soccer team will not have to decide if they will be visiting the White House. Decision was made for them. Eliminated from World Cup play 2-1 at the hands and feet of that other mighty “two-headed monster” Trinidad & Tobago.

Pitching change to Stephen Strasburg paid off. Dominated the Cubs over seven innings. Michael Taylor with a grand slam to ice the Nats 5-0 win. ... Have a nice winter Corey Kluber. Didi Gregorious took him deep twice and the Yanks ended the Indians’ season 5-2. Disastrous day leaves us at negative 732 latangs.

Who’s pitching? Kyle Hendricks maybe. Nats keeping their starter a secret as of last night. Going in blind backing the Nats for 20 units, believing Chicago had their chance to close out yesterday
