Game 10 WPA: We're going streaking! Nats 5, FF 2
This 7th-grader is the best hitter on the Nats. - Evan Habeeb-USA TODAY SportsFister wasn't like normal, but he still dealt. The Nats had some minor miscues, but overcame them by hitting a bunch. More like this, please.
Where my grounders at? Doug Fister (+2.9%) doesn't show his normal ground-ball tendencies, giving up 2 runs (1 ER) along with 4 walks and 4 Ks. It was enough, though.
"A" is for "error" and "dinger": Michael Taylor (+14.1%) drops a fly ball to put the Nats behind, but later hits a go-ahead solo shot in the 5th for the winning tally (+15.8%).
High leverage: Matt Thornton (+8.1%) gets the last out in the 7th to escape a bases-loaded, two-out jam and earn a shutdown.
