Bryce Harper once again stole the show last night, but there was plenty else worth discussing about the Nationals’ 9-2 thumping of the Braves. Such as…
Danny Espinosa hit two homers left-handed
If you’ve followed his career at all, last night’s performance by Espinosa was one of the all-time head-scratchers. He struck out twice while batting right-handed against Braves lefty Eric Stults, not looking particularly good in either at-bat. Then he homered twice while batting left-handed against right-handed relievers.
What in the world is going on here?
“I’m just trying not to do too much, just trying to stay within myself,” Espinosa said.
