According to reports from this afternoon's Hagerstown Suns/Greensboro Grasshoppers Class-A South Atlantic League game which features the return of the Face of the Nats' franchise Ryan Zimmerman in his first rehab stint, Bryce Harper, the future of the franchise, has been removed from play after being hit by a pitch thrown by Florida Marlins' right-hander Jheyson Manzueta. No word yet on the extent of the damage. Dave Nichols from the Nats News Network (@NatsNewsNetwork) is at the game and provided the following report via the Twitter:

"Just saw the replay. Looks like the top of his foot. Harper walked down th RF line to the Suns clubhouse, wasn't limping too badly. #Nats"
