WASHINGTON, D.C. — Last night the Washington Nationals gave out t-shirts that had my nickname for Ryan Zimmerman — Mr. Walkoff. By the end of the night, one of them in the clubhouse had DONKEY written in place of Zimmerman on the left sleeve. The Big Donkey, Adam Dunn, had taken the role from the [...]
I bet that Ted Leonsis did not think one of Abe Pollin’s legacies would be 100% of the Verizon Center concession stands having health code violations in 2009, according to an ESPN Outside the Lines report. From Vendor inspection reports:

At long last Opening Day is here! In just a few hours the Washington Nationals 6th National League season will begin anew with the president throwing at the first pitch at Nationals Park. The opponent, the Philadelphia Phillies. I’m hoping for a Donovan McNabb appearance, complete with Redskins #5 jersey and curly W hat, by [...]
WASHINGTON, D.C. — This gourmet sea salt covered pretzel is one of the new food items previewed at Nationals Park media day yesterday. It comes in at two pounds and comes with several spreads, like beer cheese which is quite good, and an Orwellian nickname. I imagine there will be several bets placed on whether [...]
The Washington Nationals sent out a transportation alert for Opening Day (not online for some reason) since the president will throwing out the first pitch.
