The Washington Nationals appeared to be mired in another offensive funk as the sixth inning began at Camden Yards.
Having made 10 straight outs against Baltimore Orioles right-hander Miguel Gonzalez, the Nationals desperately needed a spark to turn things around.
Bryce Harper got Washington started with his 26th home run, and Danny Espinoza subsequently added a three-run shot to propel the Nationals to a 7-4 victory Saturday night.
After Harper's leadoff homer, Clint Robinson and Wilson Ramos singled before Espinosa sent an 0-1 pitch over the 25-foot scoreboard in right field for a 6-4 lead.
Though Espinoza's blow was the difference-maker, Harper provided the impetus for the comeback with a no-doubt drive to right field.
