Miss Iowa Katherine Connors (L) poses for photographers with Washington Nationals pitcher Miguel Batista (R) before throwing out the first pitch at their MLB National League baseball game with the Philadelphia Phillies in Washington, July 30, 2010. The Nationals invited Connors to the game to make up for Batista's unintentional slight against her, telling reporters after he was booed by home fans for replacing Stephen Strasburg that the fans were disappointed the same way they would have been if they were expecting Miss Universe and got Miss Iowa instead.

So if tonight's Nationals game gets delayed, and Nats' scratch Strasburg because of the soggy conditions, will Brad Peacock get the Miguel Batista treatment in his Major League debut?
Apparently the Nats are still waiting until tonight to see if a gmae can be played tonight; otherwise, Strasburg pitches the first game of a doubleheader tomorrow at 1:00. If the rain ever stops, that is.
