Um. I didn't follow the game after the fifth. WTF HAPPENED!?!?!?!?

2 outs, bases loaded, bottom of the 9th, full count. Zim grand slam. The perfect combo.

i am over the freaking moon, this makes Ramos' walkoff against Seattle seem minor in comparison.

must say to all you locals who stayed up to the veryend, well played, i'm glad you got to see that.

Nice.

I am actually looking forward to going to tomorrow, er, tonight's game. Before it was kind of grim resignation. What a freaking inning

It wasn't Werth, it was either Morse or Espi. Might have been double-bubble; I doubt they'd throw ice cubes over the home dugout.

You're right. I just went back to see it again and you can see Morse reaching into the gum box and then tossing it into the stands.

LOVE LOVE LOVE to see those PHILLYS go home with their tails between their legs. THIS AIN'T YOUR freakIN PARK TONIGHT!!!!

If I had been at this game I'm pretty sure by now I'd be fighting some drunk philly fans because there's no way in hell I would not be in their freaking face about this.

Debbi tried to ruin one of the best Nats moments every. I turned the game back on to see Zim at the plate, bases loaded, bottom of the 9th, and I know he's gonna TCB, but the granny was just pure magic.

Gorz has the same t shirt as Storen last night.

is that, a guy in a

shirt driving an old ford F-150?

Skins put a whoopin' on the Colts and Zimmy hits a walk off Grand Slam on a full count to beat the Phillthies... Doesn't get much better than this!

SUCK IT PHILLTHIES!!

Just curious, did you live in the US at some point and move to Australia? Or are you just an Aussie with a passion for baseball? (the Nats at that )

Never been to the states, just a young sports lover.. got in to baseball about 2-3 years ago and became partial to the nats because i have always supported an underdog..decided i wanted to watch a bad team become good and what better team to do that.

These days i watch as many games as possible and have my league pass on my ipad so i can watch games at work (i don't work very hard) i love being involved int he forum and hopefully one day soon i'll get to Nationals park

MorseTheHorse · « **Reply #361:** August 20, 2011, 12:39:16 AM »

anyone know what the record for walk off HRs is? I feel like I remember hearing Zim was already like half way there. Add another one to the tally!!!! What a great game!

TylerDC · « **Reply #362:** August 20, 2011, 12:39:49 AM »

Yeah lol.. who would sell that shirt? I really don't understand it.

That's what it looks like.

Terpfan76 · « **Reply #364:** August 20, 2011, 12:40:18 AM »

Zimmy gets player of the game, but I'd have say Gorzo gets the #2 star. Desi with the #3?

It's 12 shared by several great players (Frank Robinson, Mickey Mantle, Stan Musial, Babe Ruth and Jimmie Foxx).

Zimmerman has 8, I think.
