Robles turning over the lineup again is huge.

How are sightlines "easily obstructed?"

Camden Yards is overrated. Closed concourses, seats pointed the wrong way, no cupholders, etc. Never been to PNC Park and never will.

EDIT: Sorry, yes, PNC Park is awesome. I was thinking you were talking about the Citizens Bank.

Well Citizens bank in Philly is very similar to nats park. As for the "sightlines", you can't see them except in the upper deck between home and the 1st base (above on deck circle)

When I refer to sighlines, I'm not referring to the views out of the park. I'm referring how well you can see the field from the seats in the park.

The problem is that davey will pull him regardless. But, it's great that Sanchez brought his "A" game today.  It sounds like some of you pessimists would have lost some $$$ in Vegas betting against the Nats!

ok, I'm tracking you now.  When the stadium opened, you could see the Capital and top part of washington monument. They quickly ruined it by building stuff behind leftfield.

Gotta love the view of those ugly office buildings from Nats park. Though on a river near the Capital, what a waste.

71 pitches. Sanchez going deep in the game here would be huge

It says Tony Kemp is 5'7" but he sure doesn't look it.

Views out of the park are nice the first time or two but they really don't matter to the experience after that.

Capitalism happens. That's the nature of an urban park.

Hoping they can hold the lead here.

Gotta go. I have a potential doubleheader. We’re up 1-0 in a three game series. Win the first one tonight and we won’t have to play the second!
