(Ian Desmond, Beast Mode. Screen cap via MASN/TV.)
Now, we've probably reached the point where Nationals players showing up to post-game interviews on TV wearing Beast Mode gear is old hat. But given Ian Desmond's 9th inning heroics on Sunday (after his error Saturday night -- on Ian Desmond bobblehead night, no less --- opened the floodgates for the Phillies), it only seems fair to point out that Desmond ducking out of the way of a certain HBP, only to follow up with a game-tying HR is the essence of beast mode as we understand it.
Way to go Desmond! That home run was definitely one of the Nats highlights of the year! I watch the replay all the time! Go Nats!
