Hey, for 34 straight opening days, this area had no team. At least in this instance, it's a planned pause delaying the return of the champs. Big difference

So the last baseball game that counted, can you remind me who won?

When there is no season, the Nats will get to be defending champions for two years.

Howie Kendrick plays the hero once again
homers in the tenth to lead the WORLD CHAMPION WASHINGTON NATIONALS

EDIT: quoted the wrong score: Nats actually won 4-3

Can’t believe they still have that game. Used to play that 50 years ago.

Today could have been so much better, but somebody had to go eat a bat.

Wishing you all a safe and healthy, if not happy, Opening Day.
Nats will keep the title for two years! Second time since 1994 & 1904 series-less seasons.
Game 7 replay tonight at 6:30 on 106.7, the mellifluous voices of C&D once again.
