WASHINGTON -- Nationals outfielder Michael A. Taylor turned a misplay in center field into an inside-the-park grand slam off right-hander Jake Thompson in the third inning Friday night against the Phillies at Nationals Park.
Phillies center fielder Odubel Herrera charged in on Taylor's line drive with the bases loaded, only to have the ball sail over his outstretched glove. Taylor raced around the bases and slid safely into home plate ahead of a relay throw.
