- Better every time: Reynaldo Lopez (+16.3%) gives up one run in 7+ IP, leaving with two runners on and no outs in the ayeth with 2 Ks and 2 walks on the evening.
- Can't this guy hit a sac fly? Daniel Murphy (+14.9%) smacks a two-run homer to score Turner from third with less than two outs in the first and put the Nats ahead (+14.2%).
- Depriving me of a chance to make a joke about Levi-Civita symbols: Trea Turner (+20.1%) is 3-5 with a 3rd-inning solo shot into LF (+9.9%) in addition to his first-inning lead off triple (+9.7%).
