Here is an explanation of Bill James&#8217; game score stat:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Start with 50 points. Add 1 point for each out recorded, (or 3 points per inning). Add 2 points for each inning completed after the 4th. Add 1 point for each strikeout. Subtract 2 points for each hit allowed. Subtract 4 points for each earned run allowed. Subtract 2 points for each unearned run allowed. Subtract 1 point for each walk. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So, is that better than Zimmermann&#8217;s April gem? Looking back, Zimmermann only had 4 strikeouts, but allowed one fewer baserunner. He also did it against the Reds, a team the Nats have been seemingly 7 games back of for the last month and a half. The Mets on the other hand, are nine under. Zimmermann also pitched that game with only one run of support, while Gonzalez had nine runs of support last night.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll give the nod to Zimmermann for the best pitched game in modern Nats history.<\/p>\n<p>Those nine runs I just mentioned came off of five home runs. Denard Span and Ryan Zimmerman hit solo shots back-to-back in the 1st. Zimmerman has been on fire this last week, hitting homers in each of his last three games (4 overall) and 6 since September 2. Span and Zimmermann scored on Jayson Werth&#8217;s third inning home run. Werth is first in the NL in SLG and OPS. Tyler Moore hit a solo homer and Wilson Ramos hit a 3-run homer.<\/p>\n<p>The Nats continued their winning ways, winning their 20th in 29 tries. The playoffs are long out of reach, but the team is playing up to it&#8217;s capabilities at last. That and an easier schedule.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/sports\/nationals\/gio-gonzalez-throws-one-hitter-as-nationals-clobber-5-home-runs-in-9-0-win-over-mets\/2013\/09\/09\/65a4217e-1999-11e3-8685-5021e0c41964_story.html\">Gio Gonzalez throws one-hitter as Nationals clobber 5 home runs in 9-0 win over Mets<\/a> &#8211; <em>The Post<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So, what were you watching last night?
