Strasburg, after being asked about the lack of run support in his starts this season:
"You know, I'm tired of talking about that. These guys battle every single day just like I do. It just didn't work out for us tonight. But, I'd like to get over that. I'd like to stop answering questions about run support."
(Stephen Strasburg on run support, via MASN/postgame presser, 7/2/2013)"We just haven't scored him any runs."
(Davey Johnson on Stephen Strasburg, via MASN/postgame presser, 7/2/2013)
Brewers 4, Nationals 0: Death, taxes, and no run support for Stephen Strasburg. Not good enough: 7 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 4 BB, 8 K, 105 pitches, 66 strikes.
Alternate: The sun rises, the sun sets, and the Nats offense can't support a brilliant pitching performance.
Go get 'em tomorrow.

Could have given Straus plenty of runs if only Drew Storen were a Brewer instead!
