Nationals send 'selfish' reliever packing after glove slam in 25-4 win

It's no surprise there was a little roster shakeup after a 25-4 baseball game Tuesday night.

Except it came from the winning clubhouse.

The same day the Washington Nationals decided to hold onto Bryce Harper and make a desperate push for the NL East, they jettisoned off a relief pitcher who clearly didn't seem happy finishing off the blowout win over the New York Mets.

Shawn Kelley was tapped by manager Davey Martinez to finish things off for Washington, which had just tagged Mets infielder-turned-pitcher Jose Reyes for six runs.

Kelley came in, gave up a home run, and offered a glare into his own dugout.
