Game 35 WPA: dingdingDINGERS! Nats 9, AZ 6
Good game, good game. - Matt Kartozian-USA TODAY SportsThe team picked each other up today, on the field, at the plate--especially at the plate.
Via Fangraphs (click to embiggen) How can you tell if the moon is full in a day game? Jayson Werth (+40.2%) is 1-4 with a two-out, three-run bomb into the mezzanine in left center to put the Nats ahead in the third (+30.6%), and a bases-loading walk in the 9th (+17.5%).
If "clutch" existed, here would be an example: Tyler Moore bounces a game-tying, pinch-hit, two-out, two-run home run off the LF foul pole halfway up in the 6th (+25.9%).
