  • teh Her0s: Belli-YARD (+0.271), SooperDooks (+0.255), Ryan Zimmerman (+0.251)
  • h0n0rable menti0n: "Hip Hip" Jorge Sosa (+0.194)

No goats or boos today.  Stammen didn't pitch well, but we got another terrific come-from-behind win with some surprisingly-solid bullpen work and an outpouring of offense.  Go Natioooooonals! (Nats now .500 in the Riggleman Era.  RIGGLER!!)
