AER Mid-Season Award 2: Washington (2)

Why teach a hitter to hit when you can whine instead?
In a game against New York (N), Washington posited that a strike at the bottom of the strike zone precludes the calling of a pitch at the top of the strike zone, even if both pitches are within the strike zone according to the MLB rule book. For this, Washington has been awarded the AERC's Hawk Harrelson Honorary Award for Exceptional Achievement In Not Knowing What the F*** You're Talking About and receives 5 points.

Washington now has 10 points in the AER standings (5 Previous + 5 Award = 10). Washington remains in 2nd.

This is the 2nd Mid-Season award of the 2016 MLB regular season.
This is the 2nd time the HHHAEAINKWFYTA has been awarded.
This is Washington's 2nd AER award of 2016.
This is Washington's first HHHAEAINKWFYTA award.
