Washington Nationals closer Jonathan Papelbon may have a new nickname after a comical exchange on Wednesday when MASN reporter Dan Kolko introduced Papelbon for the post-game interview after a 3-1 Nats win (video above).
As Kolko explained on Twitter later:
Perhaps Kolko could have waited an extra half-beat before taking Papelbon into the interview, but then the closer would not have gotten this great new nickname.
Just got it. I said "Thank you Johnny [as in Holliday]. Jonathan..." Pap had no idea I was talking to Holliday in the studio #JohnnyJonathan

I think it should stick, though. #JohnnyJonathan
