Harper, Perez set up Heisey's HR in 16th, Nats sweep Twins (Yahoo Sports)

Bryce Harper tied it with a pinch-hit home run in the ninth inning, pitcher Oliver Perez put down a bunt in the 15th that kept the game going and Chris Heisey homered in the 16th to give the Washington Nationals a wild 6-5 win Sunday over the Minnesota Twins. At 5 hours, 56 minutes, it was the longest regular-season game in Nationals' history. Harper was supposed to have a day off, but stepped up to lead off the ninth with Washington trailing 4-3 and connected for the first pinch-hit homer of his career.
