Yesterday, I was thinking about how pathetic Ryan Zimmerman’s Walk-Off total was in 2011. Foolishly, I didn’t tweet it, Facebook it, etc.
The Washington Nationals scored two runs in ninth and loaded the bases. Zimmerman had a 3-2 count with two outs in the bottom of the ninth with , game tied with Ryan [...]
Next week, the final Washington Nationals T-Shirt Tuesday giveaway features a Mr. Walkoff t-shirt. Being that I created the Mr. Walkoff nickname for Ryan Zimmerman back on Opening Night at Nationals Park in 2008, perhaps we should have a little talk. Clearly, this is a pretty good nickname as there have been others who thought [...]
On The Early Lead, Cindy Boren notes that Minnesota Twins slugger Jim Thome, has tied the all-time record for walk-off home runs with Jimmie Foxx, Mickey Mantle, Stan Musial, Frank Robinson and Babe Ruth. That is pretty good company and along with nearly 600 home runs makes Thome a Hall of Famer in my book. [...]
Ryan Zimmerman must really want to go to the All-Star game.
Since being selected as a candidate to the NL’s final vote for the All-Star game, the third baseman has been on fire. Last night, he did what he does best — hit a walkoff homer (nationals.com video, SHUT UP DIBBLE), winning another game (The Post) [...]

That streak, along with [...]

Security lines were not bad when we went through.
I walked around the stadium taking photographs, which I will upload tonight. Some seats have Capitol dome views, while [...]
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Ryan Zimmerman sent a telegram to the baseball world this evening: “I am Mr. Walkoff.” The fourth-year third baseman did with a ninth inning solo home run into the left field seats. His homer won the first game at Nationals Park for the home team. This may be even better than [...]

Things are looking up. After having another week long losing streak, the Nats came home and took care of business this weekend, taking the Marlins out in a three-game series (The Post). Good things happen when you [...]
Learning Curve Skips Ahead – The Post3B Ryan Zimmerman’s second walkoff homer in a month won a sloppy game for the Nationals. The shot bailed out a tough game for 2B Jose Vidro, who was bad at the plate (0-5) and in the field (2 errors). It also made the decision to pinch-run with P [...]
