WASHINGTON, D.C. — Walking out of Nationals Park yesterday with my dad, I was pretty ecstatic. The Washington Nationals had just beaten the Seattle Mariners to improve their record to 38-37, the first time they had a winning record in the summertime since 2005. They did with 8 innings of shutout pitching by Jason Marquis [...]
Since I last blogged about the Washington Nationals, they finished 6-5 on a western swing, splitting with the Arizona Diamondbacks (lots of HBP on both sides), losing 2 of 3 to the San Francisco Giants and taking 3 of 4 from the San Diego Padres. They are about halfway through an odd stretch of schedule [...]
After putting my son to bed, I went back to my laptop to check in on the Washington Nationals. They were leading the Philadelphia Phillies 7-2 when I had to take care of bedtime stuff and I came back just as the game ended and I thought I heard fireworks. Are they back? Listen [...]
It wasn’t a great weekend for the Washington Nationals, but it ended well. After missing out on a sweep of the Atlanta Braves on Thursday night, when they blew a 5-1 lead to lose in extra innings 6 -5, the Nats continued their losing ways Friday and Saturday against the Florida Marlins. Friday night was [...]
Yesterday, I was looking at one of my Washington Nationals pocket schedules when I noticed the next few months are going to be tough for the Nats regardless of their opponents. Between a seemingly high number of day games and travel that includes two trips to the west coast, the Nats are not going to [...]
The Washington Nationals just had another interesting weekend, beating the reigning World Champion San Francisco Giants 3 out of 4 times in a wraparound series. DC got strong pitching every game of the series with Jason Marquis getting a complete game shutout on Friday night, John Lannan taking a hard-luck loss on Saturday because the [...]
Yesterday, Adam Kilgore, the Washington Nationals beat writer for The Post, tweeted that the Nats were at .303 in slugging. Yikes. Perhaps they took it to heart, because by the end of the doubleheader, they had raised it up to .351. That is nothing to brag about and it is only good for 27th [...]
I have a problem with the Washington Nationals. Every time I watch them, they lose. I watched them Saturday night and they blew it, on Friday and Sunday, I just listened to them on the radio and MLB audio and they won. Obviously, the outcome of the game is dependent upon whether lay eyes on [...]
Last night’s Washington Nationals loss to the Florida Marlins featured many things we have come to expect when the two clubs meet:
Ryan Zimmerman homered, his first of the year. He has hit more homers against the Marlins than any other team. He did not hit a letter off the Marlins World Series banner which was [...]
THOMAS BOSWELL: As spring arrives, reality dawns for Nationals – The Post
The headline for this column ought to be “Reality dawns for Tom Boswell.” Remember his earlier columns from the spring when he was superhappyfoamfingeredfanboy? Well, that is gone, because Boswell is seeing the Washington Nationals for what they are — a team with a [...]
