VIDEO: Ryan Zimmerman Smashes Home Run Off Gerrit Cole to Cut Nationals' Deficit
By Adam Weinrib
2-0 in the first inning against Gerrit Cole? After a failed scoring opportunity in the top of the inning? Yeah, feels like a death sentence...right? Well, veteran Ryan Zimmerman, likely in his final games in a Nationals uniform and first World Series contest, had plenty to say about that. With two outs, he went 413 to dead center, and Cole knew it RIGHT away.
RYAN ZIMMERMAN!

Of course the first run scored in Nationals World Series history comes from Mr. National! pic.twitter.com/v7eoEGQHrJ
Zimmerman is Mr. National, he's rested, he's refreshed, and he'd like to make an impact, leading the way after winning the first playoff series of his career. That'll certainly help make a dent!
