As I'm sure yours is to see the team win. Looks like neither of us are going to get our wish.
I have followed this team since 2005. I have followed the Nats since I was old enough to understand that they were our team...around 1952 or 1953. This 2012 team is, sentiments aside, probably third best in baseball, and getting better. The Dodgers were better, by a bit, and the Yankees are better by a smaller margin.
The Nats will improve as the season goes on: Storen returns mid-season, Werth might be back by mid-August, and the young position players will hit better.
And the stands looked overwhelmingly red to me, watching the NY broadcast.
