(What do these graphs mean?)

  • P2Win: Jordan Zimmermann (+14.8%) pounds the zone, giving up no runs over 7.2 IP with 6 Ks and no walks. More like this, please.
  • I'm starting to believe: Danny Espinosa (+13.6%) is 3-5 with a pair of doubles, including one for an RBI in the first to get the Nats the early lead (+13.5%).
  • Picking his spots: Wilson Ramos (+11.4%) hits a two-out, RBI single in the first for the winning tally (+9.3%).
  • First-inning junk-timer: Clint Robinson (+13.4%) piles on the unnecessary runs to pads his stats with a two-out, two-run bomb in the first to put the Nats up by 4 (+15.0%).

Tonight's WPA brought to you by one of the more interesting Andrews Sisters reboots I've seen this week:
