Wilson Ramos hits two home runs off position players as Nationals rout Rays

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Wilson Ramos had a unique multi-home run game.

Ramos hit two home runs off position players, Bryce Harper and Clint Robinson also went deep, and the Washington Nationals routed the Tampa Bay Rays, 16-4, on Tuesday night.

“We had a lot fun as a team,” Harper said.

With the game out of reach, Rays manager Kevin Cash used infielders Jake Elmore and Nick Franklin to pitch the final two innings. Ramos hit a solo shot against Elmore in the eighth and added a two-run drive off Franklin in the ninth to finish with four RBI.
