Stephen Strasburg performed from both sides of the plate as the Nationals sweep the Marlins with a 4-0 win Wednesday afternoon. Dusty Baker allowed Strasburg to throw 110 pitches for the shutout, the second complete game and shutout of his career. Strasburg also hit a home run in the fifth inning for the first (and only necessary) run of the game, after pitching out of a man on third, no one out jam in the top of the inning.
Since returning from the disabled list, Strasburg pitched 21 innings, allowing 13 hits, one homer, and three walks while striking out 23. He would appear to be ready for the playoffs.
