I live in DC and saw the matchup for that evening: Roark v. Fernandez. I knew I had to watch it live.

They both lived up to the pitchers' duel billing. Especially Fernandez, he was his typical self - a little bit cocky, vibrant, and most of all dominant. He's also worth keeping an eye on when he comes out of the game with his team up. He's like a little kid reacting to every pitch, jumping out of his seat when he dislikes a call or when a bang bang play happens.

A shame the crowd was so sparse that night. No one would've ever thought that'd be the last time he'd pitch. I'm happy I was able to witness his brilliance at least one more time before we lost him.
