Notes – classic ending, as Harper erased Philadelphia’s one-run lead
with two outs and two on in the ninth with his fourth career walk-off HR …
Phils second-baseman Cesar Hernandez led off the game with a homer for the
second time this season … Nats tied things up quickly in the bottom of the
inning on doubles by Eaton and Rendon, and took the lead in the third when with
two outs Rendon beat out an infield single and Harper hit the next pitch out of
the park … Gio held the Phils down until the 8th, when they tied it
up in an inning featuring 3 singles, a Jayson Werth error in left field and a
Koda Glover wild pitch … bullpen problems continued in the 9th, when
Aaron Altherr doubled off Treinen and subsequently scored on two infield
grounders … 10:30 departure from Rockville met with relatively light traffic, a
good parking spot, and still-available autograph vouchers … had shade in our
regular seats for almost the entire game, nice on an unusually hot April day … the
Easter Bunny shed his nice-guy image with a vicious take-down of Teddy during
the Presidents Race
