WASHINGTON -- Bryce Harper will have to wait at least one more day to break out of his frustrating slump after Tuesday nights game between the Washington Nationals and Baltimore Orioles was postponed by rain. Kyle Seager Jersey . The game was called following a delay of approximately 2 hours, 30 minutes. The interleague matchup between crosstown rivals will be made up on Aug. 4. The teams will continue the home-and-home series in Baltimore on Wednesday night. Harper came into the game mired in a 4-for-24 skid since his return from the disabled list on June 30. He had left thumb surgery and missed 57 games. Although the 21-year-old was 1 for 13 over his previous four games, manager Matt Williams was confident the outfielder was on the brink of breaking loose. "Looks better. Timings a little better," Williams said Tuesday afternoon. "Its a process man. Take that much time off, its difficult to maintain timing. So I think hes starting to see it a little bit better, hes a little calmer at the plate. Yeah, the results werent there, but standing in the dugout watching it, he just looks calmer. It looks like hes seeing the ball a little bit better." In spite of Harpers struggles, the Nationals started the day a half-game behind Atlanta in the NL East. For that reason, Harper could afford to be patient while waiting for a return to the form that enabled him to win NL Rookie of the Year honours in 2012. "He knows ... its going to take some time. Standing in the box he can also feel it," Williams said. "When hes starting to see the ball better he can feel that, too. So its a question of continuing to work and continuing to go out and play in game situations and see the breaking ball again and again. Hell be good, but it does take time. Ill be happy to write his name in the lineup every day." The rainout forced the Nationals to shuffle their rotation. Doug Fister, who was slated to start Tuesday, was shoved back to Wednesday. Gio Gonzalez will start Thursday, and Tanner Roark, who was slated to start Wednesday, was moved to the bullpen. Williams said Roark should start Sunday, the final day before the All-Star break. The Orioles came into the game having won seven of eight. They activated right-hander Bud Norris from the disabled list to make his first start since June 21. He had been sidelined with a strained groin. Norris will start Wednesday instead, and Wednesdays scheduled starter, Wei-Yin Chen, was pushed back to Thursday. Williams said talk of a day-night doubleheader Wednesday in Washington, then Baltimore, was never discussed. "Didnt the Mets and Yankees do it at one point?" the manager asked. "I would imagine that it was about the same amount of time to get across New York City that would take for us to get to Baltimore, but no, we had a mutual off day on the 4th of August so well determine what time that game is. Since there was a mutual off day we didnt go that far." Jay Buhner Jersey .C. -- After a listless first half, the Washington Wizards used a big third quarter run to beat the Charlotte Bobcats Bradley Beal scored 21 points and the Wizards used a 17-0 run in the third quarter to take control of what had been a close game and beat the Bobcats 97-83 on Tuesday night. James Paxton Jersey . "Yeah, [I heard them]," he said. "They made me miss the free throw." A year ago, Lowrys post-game antics may not have been so well received but what was snide and snarky is now endearing quick wit. http://www.marinersrookiestore.com/Mariners-Mitch-Haniger-Kids-Jersey/ . The Nashville Predators were glad their captain was still on their side. Weber had a goal and two assists, and Roman Josi scored the shootout winner to lift the Predators to a 4-3 win over the Flyers on Thursday night. Bryan Hetherwick bought a Russian-made Makarov handgun from the personal collection of a gun dealer in Mukilteo, about 25 miles north of Seattle, on the afternoon of Aug. 5, then less than three hours later shot his grandson, Brennan, and then himself, police said. Police and gun control advocates concede that even if the dealer had been required to run a background check it is not likely he would have found anything that would have prevented him from selling Hetherwick the gun, because the man had never been committed to a mental hospital by court order. But the mans wife, Carolyn Hetherwick, said she believes the five-day waiting period that is required under Washington state law for handguns sold by dealers, but not by private sellers, would have given her mentally ill husband time for second thoughts. Every single weapon must need registration, she told ABC News affiliate KOMO-TV in Seattle. The Hetherwicks had raised their grandson since he was 10 months old, and like his grandfather, Brennan had been diagnosed as suffering from bipolar disorder. At the time of the shooting, Bryan Hetherwick was severely depressed from lack of work, health problems, and from dealing with Brennans issues, his wife said. Knowing his wifes troubles with multiple sclerosis, hed spoken of suicide in the past, she told KOMO. What was the guy thinking when Bryan was so urgent to get this right away? Carolyn Hetherwick said, referring to the gun dealer. The man who sold Bryan Hetherwick the gun, Lyman Armey, told The Seattle Post-Intelligencer he saw nothing unusual in the mans behavior, and said there was nothing illegal about the transaction. He was never in my gun shop. It was a personal firearm, he told the newspaper. I diidnt do anything illegal but I regret everything about it. Ryon Healy Jersey. Police agree that in legal terms, the gun dealer did nothing wrong. If the particular weapon is from a gun dealers personal collection and not from his business inventory, there are no checks. That means there is no waiting period, Monroe Police Chief Tim Quenzer told KOMO. Quenzer said he agrees with Carolyn Hetherwick that the laws need to be changed. The shootings occurred right outside the Monroe Police Department headquarters. It is not clear why Bryan Hetherwick chose that location, but in an interview with KOMO-TV the day after the tragedy, Carolyn Hetherwick tried to find some explanations for what happened. She said still couldnt understand how her husband could kill anyone, but she felt she knew what triggered it. Bryan Hetherwick was depressed and had been suicidal on and off ever since he lost his insurance job to corporate downsizing in Texas last June, she said. The couple had been hopeful when they moved to Washington earlier this summer, but he still couldnt find a job and he couldnt get health insurance coverage, she said. Even more devastating was the fact he couldnt find help for his grandson, she added. He worshipped Brennan, Carolyn Hetherwick said. Because of his bipolar disorder, Brennan needed special, expensive care, she explained. Who else needs help more if youre unemployed, disabled, you cant work and you have a child with special needs? she asked. I spent days on the phone just calling all these places and could not get a thing. The combination of his inability to find work and to get the care his wife and grandson needed seemed to put Bryan Hetherwick in a downward spiral, she said. Page 1 | 2 View Single Page ' ' '
