Remember last week, when Stephen Strasburg hit his first career home run and proceeded to take his sweet time rounding the bases ("officially" 26.15 seconds according to Baseball Prospectus's Tater Trot Tracker)?

Tough day. Here's J-Zimm in happier times, returning to the Nats dugout after his third inning bomb:
