Yesterday’s 12-0 spring training win by the Washington Nationals over the New York Mets was a welcome change from the 0-47 or whatever stretch they had been going through during this exhibition season. Even more notable than the win was the home run that Jayson Werth smashed into his own truck (Nats Enquirer). A “smoldering crater in the hood” was all that was left, according to folklore. Thomas Boswell thinks it went at least 489 feet, but as many as 499 feet (Nationals Journal, The Post).
