Tonight's game story: Nats are full of FAIL, lose big.
via FanGraphs
- Quality is not enough: Gio Gonzalez (-0.1%) labors at points over 6+ IP, striking out 8, walking 2, and getting charged with 3 ER (one thanks to Lidge).
- Rally time! Michael Morse (+5.5%) hits an RBI single to get the Nats within one in the 3rd (+11.9%).
- Not clutch today: Ian Desmond (-18.6%) hits into an inning-ending GDP to kill the 3rd inning rally (-18.6%).
- Also looking G04t-esque: Brad Lidge (-19.3%) melts down spectacularly, giving up a SB, a walk, a sacrifice, an IBB, then a 2-run single to start putting the game out of reach (-13.3%).
