Eaton with one of the ugliest slides I've seen in awhile. Going into second head first, it looked like he dived toward the bag and his face hit the ground and then as he slide by the bag, catching it with his hand, I believe his face slide on the ground for a little bit. Looked like a nice slide burn on his face above and beside his eye.

Thinking of Gene Wilder standing over a giant corpse: "It's alive!"

Nats treating this DH like it's the days of the 1man pitching staff, thankfully leaving Roark in as their lead disappeared for the moment.
