So that’s what .500 feels like

The Nats just beat the Mets 5-2. Took the series in New York two games to one. Jim Riggleman actually made the umpires video-review a home run, so Josh Willingham got his first grand slam of the year. (Cf. Acta, Manny, April 2009, who chewed gum while the umpire crew stuck it to his team.)

Livan Hernandez went seven full innings of shut-out baseball. He even got a base hit. A great outing by the big guy.

And the Nats are at .500 for the first time in two years and two days. About damn time.
