Nats Nightly: Will Bryce Harper face discipline over ejection/reaction in Nationals' win?

After home plate umpire Brian Knight punched Danny Espinosa out on a high-ish 3-2 fastball in the first at bat of the bottom of the ninth last night, Knight heard it from the Washington Nationals' dugout.

Knight made the decision to toss one of the Nationals: Bryce Harper. Harper had to be held back by his coaches as he tried to express his views further.

One at bat later, Clint Robinson stepped in and hit a walk-off homer to right that won it for the Nationals, 5-4 over the Detroit Tigers.
