Notes & reviews

  • infield shifted to right for Dunn
  • infield shifted to right for Dunn
  • third baseman Ian Stewart was positioned between SS and 3B and dove to his left for the grounder
  • a foul off the bat of Jason Marquis struck HP umpire Brian Knight on the mask; he went down but popped back up immediately; Knight was attended by the Nationals trainer and watched by crew chief Dana DeMuth but stayed in the game
