The second baseball game we attended while in the DC area was the Miami Marlins playing at the Washington Nationals stadium, Nationals Park.
Jenn’s game summary:
Bomb-sniffing dogs in the parking garage: unusual. Beautiful day for a ballgame. Had a “Walking Taco” from Ben’s Chili Bowl—a DC fave. Good stuff. Racing presidents is a fun event between innings. Teddy won. Homers by Thomas and Meneses. Herz struck out 13, which made for a very quick game. It was a City Connect uniform day, so the Nationals were wearing cherry blossoms, and the whole stadium was themed accordingly—kind of pretty. A nice ballpark, but it would’ve been better if they hadn’t blocked the view of the Capitol with condos.
We got there shortly before the gates opened:
