Just a Bit Inside
A few weeks ago, umpire Greg Gibson found himself on the wrong end of the following headline:
“Umpire Greg Gibson Took A Stephen Strasburg Fastball To The Crotch“
Which obviously begs the question, should Gibson now change his name, perhaps considering the following as an option?:
All kidding aside, umpires have a crappy job. Pretty much the only time anyone notices...

Nationals Shouldn't Place Innings Limit on Stephen Strasburg With Postseason Aspirations Possibly Ahead
The Nationals are trying to be careful with Stephen Strasburg. Almost too careful. He's their ace with a 4-1 record and 2.21 ERA. He's been the most highly touted pitcher in baseball –– since Mark Prior –– over the past few years. He's continued to be the team's prized commodity as the first pick in the 2009 MLB Draft. Due to those reasons, the Nationals want...

Watch Stephen Strasburg hit his first Major League home run
He doesn’t often give them up when he’s on the mound, but apparently Stephen Strasburg is pretty good at hitting homers himself. The Nationals pitcher blasted his first career major league home run Sunday against the Orioles, prompting a curtain call at home in Washington. It was a pretty cool scene, especially considering it was against Baltimore, who currently sit atop the AL East.

Stephen Strasburg Leaves Game With Arm Fatigue
Stephen Strasburg had an eventful Sunday. He went two-for-two at the plate with his first career home run, while also pitching five innings, allowing just four hits, three runs (one earned) and striking out eight. He improved his record to 4-1 and lowered his ERA to 2.21 with a 9-3 win over the Baltimore Orioles. The big news, however, was how the 23-year-old exited the game.
After...

Stephen Strasburg hits first career HR, takes curtain call
Your browser does not support iframes.
Stephen Strasburg played the stopper role perfectly on Sunday, and helped his own cause with his first career home run in the fourth inning. Video here (and above). Slowest home run trot ever? We had him clocked at roughly 25 seconds round trip. Here's Stras taking his curtain call:

Rob Dibble has some advice for Stephen Strasburg on that "Hot Stuff on junk" problem
Tough day for Stephen Strasburg on Tuesday: roughed up a bit by the Padres, foiled by Mother Nature. Oh, and he somehow managed to get "Hot stuff" on some unmentionable area of his body that made Davey Johnson smirk during his postgame presser (note, new Stras nickname: Fireballer). And then the World's #1 Stephen Strasburg Fan and World's #1 Most Disgruntled ex...
