  • Trying to hold a spot: Scott Olsen (-5.4%) goes 6 IP with 5 Ks, 1 BB, 1 ER, and no run support.
  • Finally! Kevin Mench (+8.3%) leads Nats' hitters in WPA, going 0-0 with a walk...
  • Rallies killed: Ryan Zimmerman (-7.6%) GDPs with two on in the third (-11.8%), while Ivan Rodriguez (-19.9%) Ks grounds out to end the game with runners on the corners (-10.4%).
  • Painful as a torn UCL: Nats go 1-12 with RISP (with the one hit being an IF single that doesn't score a run), strand 14 runners, and hit for -45.1% WPA.
