RF Bryce Harper was the Player of the Month last April when he hit .286 with nine homers.

Harper ended up at .243 in 147 games with 24 doubles, two triples, 24 homers and 86 RBIs and will look to come closer to his 2015 numbers when he was MVP with an average of .330 and 42 homers.

WASHINGTON -- Washington Nationals young pitchers Reynaldo Lopez and Joe Ross, the latter of whom had been used as a pinch-runner in a crazy Game 5 of the National League Division Series, sat at their lockers and stared at the floor.Veteran reliever Oliver Perez walked over and gave a hug to reserve outfielder Chris Heisey, whose pinch-hit homer in the seventh had given their team late life.And starting pitcher Max Scherzer, staked to a lead going into the fateful seventh inning, gave a hug to rookie Trea Turner and told the young center fielder that he had an incredible second half of the season.It was a quiet clubhouse in the early morning hours Friday for the Nationals, who let a 1-0 lead slip away and lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers 4-3 in the fifth and deciding game of the NLDS.The game lasted four hours, 32 minutes and will be remembered for Dodgers ace lefty Clayton Kershaw coming out of the bullpen to get the final two outs after he was the starting pitcher in Tuesday's Game 4."It's...

RF Bryce Harper started for the second day in a row after he was injured Sept. 25 when he slid into third after a fake tag by Pirates 3B Jung Ho Kang. Harper drove in a run Saturday as Washington won. He drove in a run in the first with a single after striking out four times Friday. "I mean, that's encouraging, it's encouraging to the fact that he didn't have a very good day yesterday and like I said he had to get the rust off," Nationals manager Dusty Baker said. "And it was against a left-hander and that's who he's going to see the first two games of this series is left-handers. And to get a RBI single to put us on top and hopefully that can happen in the playoffs because most of the time who gets a lead early is the team that usually wins, I think 70, 75 percent of the time whoever scores first so that was big today."
