Wire Taps: Bryce Harper struggling; Daniel Murphy as a backup plan; sprinklers go off

It was just one of those nights at the ballpark. The game started after a rain delay (during which the sprinklers went off), the Nats gave up seven early runs, and by the end, there were so many Mets fans in the ballpark, it felt more like Citi Field than Nationals Park. Please take this as your call to wear red, go to the ballpark, and cheer loudly.

Here's the latest from the ballpark.

Daniel Murphy is literally the best back up plan of all time
Murphy, believe it or not, was never the Nationals' first choice at second.
