2012Bryce Harper‘s first two-homer game ended with him throwing his helmet in the ninth inning and getting himself thrown out of the game by umpire C.B. Bucknor. Harper’s homers did help the first-place Washington Nationals (78-51) snap a five-game losing streak by beating the Miami Marlins (59-72) 8-4.

2013Gio Gonzalez pitched seven innings and Washington (68-65) hit three homer runs in a 9-0 win over the Miami Marlins (49-83).

Bryce Harper also homered helped the Nats pull within 6 1/2 games of the Cincinnati Reds for the second NL wild-card spot.
