Nationals center fielder Nyjer Morgan is having the game of his life tonight. He’s 4-for-4 with a double, RBI, three runs scored and a stolen base, he’s robbed Corey Patterson of a home run and he’s run down Miguel Tejada’s bases-loaded shot to left-center field.

He’s made a much better impression than the one he left back in D.C.

All three of the Orioles’ runs in the fifth were unearned after two errors by Nats shortstop Ian Desmond.
