Game of inches


Oh yeah, that's a cliche, but in this case, it applied.   Steve Lombardozzi of the Washington Nationals made a spin-and-throw play to first base, which was being covered just in time by Nationals pitcher Jordan Zimmerman.  The ball got to Zimmerman's glove at the same time that Zimmerman's foot stepped on first base, on step ahead of Cesar Hernandez of the Philadelphia Phillies.  I did a screen capture of the video to show how close this was.


Here's the video of the play.
