Game 119: No walk-off for Pete this time...

by Doghouse on Aug 18, 2009 10:30 PM EDT

Boooo! Ryan Zimmerman flies out with runners on the corners and two out in the bottom of the 9th (-0.206)
Boooooo! Sean Burnett gives up the game-losing dinger (-0.241)
g0at: Pete "Not so clutch tonight" Franchise (-0.298)
'A' for effort: Nyjer Morgan (+0.165), Jason Bergmann (+0.179), Craig Stammen (+0.138)

Another exciting see-saw, but this time it ended the wrong way. Maybe next time. Amusingly enough, 0.108 of Stammen's positive WPA is from batting--only 0.030 is from pitching.

Vivian Jaffe: "Have you ever transcended space and time?"
Albert Markovski: "Yes. No. Uh, time, not space... No, I don't know what you're talking about."

He's a flash in the pan

Padilla walked into the Nats' clubhouse for the first time and said, "My God. I'm in heaven."
