The Washington Nationals went from playing in a blowout of the Braves on Thursday night where they scored 15 runs to playing a tight, extra-inning game against the Braves on Friday night. The Nats tied the game in the bottom of the ninth thanks to Matt den Dekker and won the game in the bottom of the tenth on a three run home run by Michael Taylor. Both den Dekker and Taylor were pinch hitting when they came through with clutch hits.
Taylor got the bucket of filth bath at home plate and a gatorade dump after the home run.
