Game 139: Save some runs for Strasburg!
- Pulled! John Lannan (+10.8%) gives up way too many fly balls, but only surrenders 1 ER in 5.1 IP with 4 Ks and 2 BBs.
- Reliably Beastly: Michael Morse (+20.4%) is 2-4 with 2 HRs, including a two-run, first-inning shot for the lead and the winning margin (+17.6%)
- Also d1ng3r1ng: Ian Desmond (+9.2%) hits a leadoff solo shot to tie it in the first (+10.7%), while Jayson Werth (+7.0%) adds another solo bomb to tack on (+7.8%).
