Bryan Reynolds watched Washington Nationals rookie pitcher Jackson Rutledge try to gather himself after taking a throw off the back of his head from a teammate and wondered if a little baseball justice was about to be served. Rutledge had tried to make himself as small as possible — no easy task at 6-foot-8 — when catcher Drew Millas fired the ball toward second base in an effort to throw out Pittsburgh's Ji Hwan Bae with one out in the bottom of the fourth inning on Wednesday night. Instead, it caromed off the back of Rutledge's red cap and rolled into right field while Bae raced to third.
