I'm not totally sure. If we can keep our heads above water next three series... Reds Astros Marlins... it'll be a great sign. We don't have an off day until the 23rd.
I didn't watch the game, so I can only go off the highlights shown on SC. But I think they showed 4 different pitches that were all well off the plate. That one to Bay was in the other batters box. I would have gotten tossed, too. That was God awful! Shades of Eric Gregg 1997 NLCS.
Even just listening to the radio, though, the nationals announcers seemed to be very... grateful? and surprised at the strike zone Strasburg was getting.
