8/1 Sitting in my good seats
8/3 (*2) Sitting in the cheap seats with about 20 co-workers, putting good use to my RCR points
8/4 Last game of the year in the good seats

So I'm guessing there's no easy way to re-sell the RCR point tickets?

I have to deal with that situation soon.

Any seat is a good seat at a baseball game!

Sell them on StubHub just like any other ticket.  Problem is that tickets on StubHub for games this week are practically selling for pennies.  I'm charging my co-workers a nominal fee just to make sure that people are at least semi-serious about actually showing up.

You can sell them on Stubhub? Nice.

Probably a lot of speculators bought tickets for the Phillies series. Or people will be attending Redskins Training Camp.

Taking a peek at the upcoming Phillies/Marlins homestand:

Tuesday 31st vs Phillies, 19.05 (Strasburg vs Lee) - high 86, low 72, 30% chance of rain
Wednesday 1st vs Phillies, 19.05 (Jackson vs Worley) - high 88, low 73, 40% chance of rain
Thursday 2nd vs Phillies, 19.05 (Detwiler vs Hamels) - high 92, low 76, chance of rain nil
Friday 3rd vs Marlins, 16.05 (Zimmermann vs Johnson) & 19.05 (TBD vs TBD) - high 95, low 78, 10% chance of rain
Saturday 4th vs Marlins, 19.05 (Gonzalez vs Buehrle) - high 94, low 79, 30% chance of rain
Sunday 5th vs Marlins, 13.35 (Strasburg vs TBD) - high 95, low 79, 40% chance of rain

Updating to this morning - interesting that ESPN.com now doesn't list starters for either side for the second Friday fixture.

Tickets for the Wednesday game are listed for under a dollar, low cost tickets available for every game, including the double header and the bobblehead games which I would have thought would have had higher demand.

Philly fans are dumping their seats. I'd rather see 5,000 empty seats than idiots from Philly sitting in them.

I'll be there Tuesday in Sec. 105.

Low ticket prices for all the Philly games all jumped during the day, with the available inventory for tomorrow being significantly reduced.  Prices for the weekend games against the Marlins all dropped slightly despite the DH, free tshirt, and bobblehead.

Sunday 5th vs Marlins, 13.35 (Strasburg vs Nolasco) - high 92, low 79, 10% chance of rain

Updated to this morning - still no starters for Friday's Game 2 posted on ESPN.com or on the Nats site.

Also, if you're not going to Games 1 or 3 of the Phillies series - these are both going to be on MLB Network...beware of extra-wonky umpiring.

I know Thursday's match is on MLB Network, but it doesn't look like today's is, at least according to http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/official_info/broadcasts/national.jsp.  MLBN is giving their love to the Yankees and Red Sox tonight :|

Tuesday MLB Network coverage is still given on the ESPN.com list (http://espn.go.com/mlb/team/schedule/_/name/wsh/washington-nationals -from which I got my original information) but mlb.com should be more authoritative in this case.

Actually, the schedule as of right now says 2 AL games, but it's the Angels - Texas as the headliner and Twinkies-ChiSox as the backup.

Capital Weather Gang's NatCast for tonight has 'Could see a shower or storm in the area early, but rain chances decrease by mid-evening' with low 80's at first pitch, upper 70's by ninth inning, 35% chance of rain.

weather.com's hour-by-hour forecast has 50% chance of rain ('scattered thunderstorms') throughout the core game hours 19.00-22.00, and 40% in the hours immediately flanking this.

Coming to the Dodgers on the 20th and the Brewers on the 21st and 22nd. 

Like to do a meetup at the Dodgers game since I'll be taking the kids to the Brewers games. 

Also, if anyone is looking to unload tickets....   :)
