Tonight, our phenom Stephen Strasburg returned to the mound after missing just over a yr after Tommy John Surgery. He was on a pitch count. Tale of the tape:
5 complete innings
56 pitches, 40 strikes
2 hits, 4 K's, 0 BB's
The announcers, fans, and mgt are just giddy!!
PS - Last yr the Nats averaged 13,000 more fans/game when Strasburg Pitched.
PSS - All of his foreseeable starts for the yr are scheduled to be at home.
PSSS - I have tix for Sunday, his next scheduled start.....weather permitting.
