He had a decent start in the game yesterday, I started watching it in the 5th inning and I saw his first hit, a double that he absolutely crushed to the warning track. It hit the part where the track meets the centerfield wall. And then he hit a sac fly out to get his first RBI as well, at the time I was really hoping it would be the game-winning RBI but instead it was the "brief lead" RBI. But I would be remiss if I didn't mention his throw to home plate, he threw the ball all the way from left field to home plate and it was exactly on point, Ramos just failed to catch it so they scored a run.

The real issue I see with the Nats though is closer. Henry Rodriguez blew the save last night (when he's on point, he's fine, but he isn't consistently on point) and I don't even like Lidge. Between Henry and Lidge I don't see anyone who can consistently hold down the closer role until Storen gets back.
