Opening Night at Nationals Park - Before the Game
March 29, 2008
I should be sent back to the minors for my lousy coverage of this most momentous night. Nevertheless, here's a few impressions of the first part of the day. But, when the team took the field, and my 4 1/2-year odyssey of watching this stadium be born came to a conclusion of sorts, I put away the damn camera and watched the game.
The Right Field Gate at First and Potomac had its own long lines, and with game time only 90 minutes away, it seemed unlikely that everyone would be in their seats by the first pitch.
