Wild pitch by Washington Nationals pitcher bounces over screen (video)
It is not uncommon for balls to travel over the protective screen behind home plate, but usually that happens when a lazy, high foul pop-up comes off the bat of the hitter, not caroming sky-high after a wacky bounce during a wild pitch by an erratic pitcher.
But that exact situation occurred on Tuesday night when Washington Nationals relief pitcher Henry Rodriguez’s wild pitch...
Henry Rodriguez makes the Nats, definitely has naked pictures of Davey Johnson

Nationals reliever Henry Rodriguez manages to injure hand shutting bathroom door
While not as off-the-wall as some of the more unbelievable, often tragically comical, ways in which pro athletes have injured themselves away from the field, court, etc., how Washington Nationals relief pitcher Henry Rodriguez injured his right index finger surely belongs at least a brief mention when the overfilled pantheon of bizarre non-sports-related athlete injuries [...]
Committee replaces Rodriguez as Nationals' closer
Washington Nationals manager Davey Johnson made a tough decision Tuesday when it came to the closer's job. Johnson moved Henry Rodriguez out of the position before the 5-2 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies.

Henry Rodriguez Demoted From Closer Role
Davey Johnson told reporters today that Henry Rodriguez would no longer be used in the closer role for the Nationals. According to a report in the Washington Post, Johnson stated that Rodriguez will be used in a less demanding role in the Nationals bullpen.

How Do We Weigh Henry Rodriguez's Stuff With His Inconsistent Performance?
Up three runs last night, the Washington Nationals rolled the dice and allowed Henry Rodriguez to attempt to close the game for them. The gamble worked. Rodriguez retired three of the four batters he faced with the one batter reaching base on an Ian Desmond error. He earned save No. 9 on the season, and Nats fans were left having to pick up the batteries from the remote they threw...
