Marlins Game

So, the road trip to St. Louis did not go too well for the Nats and we found ourselves below .500 when they returned to DC for the series with the Marlins.  Darren and I were excited for another night game, even though we knew it was going to still be cold.  Something is not right about watching a baseball game with hats, gloves and multiple layers on!  This was also the first game with our season tickets.  Our seats are not as good as last year, since everyone ended up getting moved over, thanks to the new Presidential seats.  But, we are closer to the field which is nice, and we are definitely in foul ball range!

The story of the night was two errors (both by the Nats), poor pitching (for both the Nats and the Marlins) and three home runs (unfortunately all by the Marlins).  So, the Nats ended up losing their fifth consecutive game.  This loss is especially hard to take since we had the bases loaded in both the seventh and eighth innings, and we were unable to score either time.  But, it is a long season.  There is still a lot of baseball left to play.  Hopefully, the guys enjoyed their day off yesterday and are back with a vengeance tonight.  Plus, the weather is beautiful today.  Spring is in the air and baseball is in full swing, Let's go Nats!
