Baseball postseason is in full swing and it doesn't take long for stars to emerge. The National League Wild Card Washington Nationals surged from May to the end of the season to overtake the league competition and secure a spot in the postseason. And they took advantage. Stephen Strasburg proved pivotal in the Wild Card game as the Nats came back on the Milwaukee Brewers to win 4-3 Strasburg notched 3 critical innings of relief and got the win (3IP, 2H, 4K). He then followed up with 6 innings of dominant ball (6IP, 3H, 1ER, 10K) to secure NLDS Game 2 for the Nationals to head home with the series even. He's tapped to start Game 5 in LA and may propel his team to their first NLCS. But Strasburg has emerged as a co-ace to Max Scherzer nad is the Longhorndave Sportsman of the Week!
