Wire Taps: Washington Nationals’ terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day; broken nose; falling nets; and a never-ending inning...

So, about all the protective netting in Citizens Bank Park falling during yesterday’s game, which resulted in a 20-minute-ish delay?

Yeah, that was something that happened, and just what that really long game needed.

“It’s crazy,” Starlin Castro said, “I just come inside because I’m just going to pick up some bats and when I go outside and see, it’s crazy.

“I’ve never seen that happen. We had a lot of issues in this game. First the home plate umpire got hit in the head, after that we got a really long inning, and then the net, I think this is a weird day for the whole team.
