Woman loses beer to foul ball
And now a video of a woman getting owned by a foul ball at the Nats game last Thursday. Thank God she wasn’t hurt, but major fail for leaving the beer in harm’s way. Be the first to like. Like Unlike
More »Nats drop finale to the Giants
On a picturesque July Sunday, the Giants came out swinging. With the series on the line in the last game before the All Star Break, they’d get a pair of walks and a pair of singles off Livan Hernandez to jump out to a 2-0 lead. Livo was reaching for the corners but not finding [...]
More »Nats Fall to Royals, 1-0
Photo by Ian Koski / Nationals Daily News Looking for the sweep today, the Nationals brought out their ace, Stephen Strasburg, to cement a winning streak and build some momentum, going into the weekend series against Baltimore. Sadly, the team’s offense couldn’t deliver, in a game fraught with mistakes and misplays, in some cases over-sliding [...]
More »Nats With Bats Revive Stats
A humid Washington evening in the early days of summer is a bit of a difficult environment for baseball. You never know when a storm will break out. Tonight, the Royals were the recipients of a pair of storms: one from the Nationals’ bats, and the other from Mother Nature herself. A 49-minute rain delay [...]

’0G1G3481′ courtesy of ‘Keith Allison’ We don’t cover a lot of Orioles “news’ because…well…we have our own team now, and the Orioles have been the laughing stock of professional sports for over a decade. But as a life-long fan of the birds, and what some could call DC’s AL team, I just had to write [...]

More »More baseball draft picks.
photo courtesy of Alex Ellis/The GW Hatchet Reader Robert Lintott pointed out to me that GW had a student baseball player picked in the recent MLB draft as well, in round 13. Pat Lehman hails from Jersey originally, so he’s not one of our native sons, but he adopted our city for four years and [...]
More »GMU students and area natives drafted by MLB
’0610-3689′ courtesy of ‘jodycl’ Five George Mason University students, three of them local to the area, were picked in the MLB draft yesterday. Left Fielder Scott Krieger is from the Towson, MD area and was a 19th round pick. Jordan Flasher is a pitcher from the Manassas, VA area and was a 21st round pick. [...]

‘Teddy and Teddy’ courtesy of ‘philliefan99′ It’s too early for giant-headed past presidents. Still in my morning pre-coffee stupor, I got off the escalator at Chinatown only to be greeted by good ol’ Teddy, the running prez. He was handing out 25% off coupons to the Memorial Day weekend games, which is always nice. He [...]

‘Rock the Red’ courtesy of ‘afagen’ Capitals 2nd Round: 2-3, facing Game 6 on Monday night in Pittsburgh. It’s down to the raggedy edge again for the Caps. After starting 2-0 against the Penguins, the Pens have picked up 3 running, two of them in Overtime. The Caps are short on momentum right now, and [...]
More »Sports Fix: Hail to the Victors!
Crazed Fan by Leediehr 26-24. Sorry, Cowboys, no 4 & 0 for you. The Redskins looked quite good in Dallas today, with Jason Campbell starting to look like the Quarterback that the Redskins had hoped he’d become. Two TDs and 230 yards, all without a single pick. Clinton Portis came up big with 121 yards [...]

this jersey says it all by dharmabumx As August comes to a close, we should all be thankful for the amazing weather we’ve had this summer in DC. Sure, there were a few weeks with temperatures in the high 90′s and Vietnam-like humidity, but for the most part we’ve had many reasonable days in the [...]

Teddy still winless by afagen It’s hard to say good things about the Nationals. Last in the NL East, and 15 games back of the Mets. 23 games under .500. But, hey, we won 2 of 3 from the Braves in Atlanta. And, Sunday’s win, much like Saturday’s, was proof that the Nationals do, in [...]
More »$7.50? You freakin’ kidding me?
I had never seen beer this expensive before going to a Nationals game. Sure I had a good time, but that $7.50 beer stuck in my craw a little. I just got invited to go to another game and will likely go but will likely not buy a beer or even a bottle of water, [...]
