Paul DeJong is back with the Nationals and grateful for the opportunity

Paul DeJong is back after a frightening injury, but he'll have to wait at least another day to get back on the field with the Washington Nationals. Before Tuesday night's game against the Detroit Tigers was postponed by inclement weather, the Nationals reinstated the 31-year-old third baseman, who had been out with a broken nose, cheekbone and orbital floor — the bone below the eye — since he was hit in the face by a pitch April 15. To make room on the roster, the Nationals optioned infielder Andrés Chaparro to Class AAA Rochester.

Infielder Paul DeJong Activated by Nationals After Getting Hit in Face by 92.7 mph Pitch in April

The Washington Nationals activated infielder Paul DeJong from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday and optioned infielder Andrés Chaparro to Triple-A Rochester. DeJong was hit in the face by a 92.7 mph pitch from Pittsburgh's Mitch Keller on April 15 that fractured his nose, orbital, and orbital floor. The 31-year-old had surgery six days later. DeJong went 11 for 40, hitting .275 with a double, a home run, six RBIs, and four runs scored in 12 rehab games for Double-A Harrisburg. DeJong, who was signed as a free agent in the offseason, hit .204 with four doubles, two RBIs, two stolen bases, and three runs scored in 16 games for Washington before his injury. The 26-year-old Chaparro hit .091 in four games for the Nationals this season. The Nationals' scheduled game against Detroit on Tuesday was rained out and will be made up as part of a day-night doubleheader on Wednesday.
