• From The Archives: 

• 4/26/09: “Washington Nationals’ #1 Prospect Jordan Zimmermann (2-0) After 8-1 DC Win Over The New York Mets.” – Federal Baseball – Patrick Reddington

“Jordan Zimmermann threw 103 pitches in today’s win, and he was still fooling Mets’ batters long after he’d shown them all his pitches in the first few innings. The sharp slider, the slower tight curve, a few random changes and some consistently mid-90’s heat. Zimmermann was a little wild, but unafraid to come inside, he brutalized lefties with a low fastball inside and a slider in on the hands, sawed off some bats, K’d Carlos Delgado twice, David Wright three times, and held the Mets to just 1 run on 4 hits through four innings. Zimmermann worked out of a jam in the fifth after a leadoff walk and a single, popping up Danny Murphy on a jam shot, striking out Carlos Beltran and popping Delgado up to the infield to escape trouble. Lifted after a one-out single by Ryan Church in the sixth.

“Zimmermann’s final line: Zimmermann, Jordan – (W, 2-0), 2.38 ERA, 5.1 IP, 6 hits, 1 ER, 2 BB, 5 K’s, 103 P, 62 for strikes, 4 GO, 6 FO in front of 40, 023.”
