How bout those Washington Nationals? Winners of eight in a row and in third place (read, not in the basement!) They're 4-0 since Ryan Zimmerman came off the DL.
This last week they have been fun to watch as this young team is finally, finally playing up to their potential. Not hitting for avg as a team yet, but they pitch pretty well and ride the long ball. The manager has been batting the pitcher in the eighth spot during this streak and having their normal number three hitter (Jason Werth) lead off. Hey, they're winning......
Playing the O's during "Beltway Series," there are even 35,000 in the seats this weekend which is great for us.
With the US Open also in town, and the weather relatively nice, it's actually a good sports weekend for your Nation's Capital!
