Man, I've always liked Maddon, but this sour grapes bullcrap is pathetic.
Straight from the cheater's mouth. This team and it's manager are shameless.

...our best Tuesday turn-out of the season thus far; best since Strasburg's return-amid-rain against the Dodgers on 6th September 2011 (29,092).
It's weird... people I never knew even followed baseball are asking for extra Nationals tickets. I know we've always maintained that all the Nats needed to do was start winning and the people would come, I just never expected it to happen this quickly.
Tim Tschida was tonight's home plate umpire; he was also the home plate umpire on June 14, 2005 when Donnelly got ejected. Weird.
Dirk Hayhurst on Twitter:On Peralta: He's awesome. Life of the party & super teammate. Not a villain, just a pine tar junky. I'd bid on his confiscated glove on Ebay
For what it's worth... noted Nats lover Mitch Williams called the ejection BS, last night on MLBN.Said pine tar on a glove is no different than pine tar on a bat... and that it does nothing to give a pitcher an advantage.
Then Mitch, why would they do it if it gives no advantage?
