MLB Nationals troll Penguins with Pirates in town The Washington Nationals are trolling the Pittsburgh Penguins
Harper's first intentional walk came in the third after he had worked the count to 2-1 with Trea Turner on second base.
" put up the zeroes when I needed to", said Scherzer, who allowed just three of his first 21 batters to reach base.
Update: Matt Adams smacked a solo shot himself to lead off the fourth.
Harper now owns the third-highest single-season walk rate (29 percent) for a qualified hitter in the live-ball era, behind only Barry Bonds' marks from 2002 (32.4 percent) and 2004 (37.6 percent), respectively.
Chad Kuhl started for the Pirates on Tuesday night and had a tall task ahead of him as he was squaring off against three-time Cy Young Award Winner Max Scherzer. The loss snapped the Bucs five-game winning streak.
Nationals manager Dave Martinez could sense Bryce Harper's frustration with the lack of pitches he has been thrown in the strike zone recently.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Moved to the leadoff spot for the first time since 2013, Bryce Harper showed signs of breaking out of his slump.

Pirates: RHP Joe Musgrove (right shoulder strain) made his first rehab assignment for Class A Bradenton and allowed two runs and five hits in three innings. The big hit was a three-run double from Turner.
The Nationals broke the game wide open with a six-run sixth, with Turner producing half of the runs with his three-run double. Scherzer, Adams and Ryan Zimmerman each added RBI singles. After allowing 4 hits and issuing a pair of walks, Glasnow had been saddled for 6 runs and the Nats led 12-0.
Scherzer, however, was almost untouchable most of the night, fanning eight before allowing a two-run homer in the seventh to Corey Dickerson.
Scherzer (6-1) took it from there, striking out the side in the fifth inning before his teammates exploded for four runs in the last of that frame. He fired 106 pitches, 71 for strikes.
The Pittsburgh Pirates had nothing go their way in a 12-2 defeat a Washington on Tuesday. Elias Díaz was caught looking. Adam Frazier was walked and pinch-hitter Sean Rodriguez popped out to center field to end the game.
For the remainder of the season, numberFire projects Marte to hit.272 with 51 runs, 11 home runs, 48 RBIs, and 19 stolen bases. This set the final at 12-4.
