Z-mann to the rescue: Nats top Mets 8-1, climb to 4-13

So far, Jordan Zimmermann is no fluke. He threw a beauty on Sunday (but was quite critical of his own performance), winning his second consecutive start and dropping his E.R.A. to 2.38 while striking out five, walking two and only allowing one earned run.

The offense did their part, too, notching 13 hits, including some great homers from Austin Kearns and Jésus Flores.

Finally, a road win!

Too busy this weekend to really go into better detail, so here's the wrap.

Now let's see if the Nats can take this upswing into Philadelphia and get Shairon Martis his 3rd win.
