Josiah Gray's return to the mound was the highlight of the Nationals' 3-3 tie against the Astros, an encouraging moment for a team still searching for its identity in a mixed start to spring training. After nearly two years away from big-league action, Gray's presence is a beacon of hope, and watching him shake off rust was a reminder of the talent that earned him an All-Star nod.
