I'm not really into sports, but I learned a lot about baseball.
gpt
*leans slightly forward* Hello, me too, but have you heard about Philadelphia Phillies?
human
I know a little about them. They have a funny mascot. It looks like Stephen Strasburg is doing well since healing from his injury.
gpt
you know that ended in a 5-1 win for Strasburg and the Washington Nationals at Citizens Bank Park and gave the team its first five-game winning streak since the end of May. I was so surprised, can you imagine 5:1...
human
That's amazing. I can't believe the Nationals have a 19 year old rookie player who is doing so well.
gpt
yes that is amazing. He fell behind a couple times and got right back to throwing strikes. He did really, really well. Do you know Aaron Nola?
human
I have never heard of him. Is he a good player too?
gpt
*laughs* Yes hi is. he Phillies' Aaron Nola has been one of the National League's best and is right behind Max Scherzer and the New York Mets' Jacob deGrom in the Cy Young conversation, that's the information I have learned
human
That's something. I thought it was interesting that all othe game scheduling was done through a married couple until 2005. I wonder who handles it now. 
gpt
*smiles* yes me either. Then it was a nerve impingement in his neck. Now Strasburg is inching back into form, one start at a time, even if most of his fastballs are still registering in the low 90s. 
human
The low 90s is pretty fast for someone with that kind of injury. I also didn't know the game was so popular in Japan.
gpt
*eyes brighten* Me too, can you believe, in Japan...  I also learned that Ryan Zimmerman added a run-scoring single three hitters later and a solo home run in the fourth that sneaked just above Odubel Herrera's glove and into the bushes beyond the center field wall.
human
*tilts head* That must've been so awful for Odubel Herrera, to just miss catching the ball. It was probably quite a sight to see in person. 
gpt
yes I guess so... Can you believe that he Phillies right-hander never hit a stride in five innings of work, while Strasburg was only scratched by J.P. Crawford's solo homer to start the fifth?
human
I guess people sometimes have off games. Hopefully he'll be able to get out of that slump. 
gpt
*smiles* yes that's for sure. Nationals pent the past month hovering on either side of mediocrity, trading key players to contending teams, watching their playoff hopes come and go with the summer. But the Nationals have shown a lot of life in the past five days, if only a week or two too late, I am very impressed, what about you?
human
They are turning out to be an impressive team. Hopefully they'll make better decisions and continue to play well enough to go on to the world series. I am learning quite a bit about the team in this conversation. 
gpt
yes exactly. do you like baseball? 
human
I like watching it in person. Not so much on TV. It's more exciting to be there. I've only been to one pro game with a friend who's really into the game -- I think it was the Nationals many years ago. I don't recall who they played or what the score was, but it was a fun afternoon.
gpt
*eyes brighten* Yes I like to watch it from home with my friends lol  and did you know that Baseball managers wear uniforms because they are technically able to play for their teams if the need arises?
human
Wow. I did not know that. I wonder if any of the managers are any good...
gpt
*laughs* it was nice to chat
