Yes, but it was the name of the area where the guy sat who used to hang the "K"'s for each strikeout over the railing, down the left field line.  I can't remember his handle but he was an active early poster on the MLB board.  Bumsfan4 was also a resident of the area.  There was always an open invitation to visit K-street for a brewski.   :cheers:

That's true, but the nickname for that section was not widely known.  K Street as a nickname for Strasburg was coined by some columnist I can't remember off the top of my head and then further popularized by the Sports Bog.  It disappeared along with the Ks in centerfield after Stras got the Tommy John.
