Notes & reviews

on the throw to the plate, Ryan Zimmerman ran towards 2B; catcher Yadier Molina stepped forward, caught the ball and threw to SS Daniel Descalso at 2B; Descalso took a couple of steps towards Zimmerman but Bryce Harper ran for the plate on Molina's throw; Descalso's return throw to HP was high; Molina tried to catch it as he backed up towards the plate; the ball tipped of his glove and was caught by pitcher Fernando Salas; as Harper slid into HP, Molina fell backwards on him and Salas tagged Harper late
