There are always one or two days in the year that people dread for one reason or another. For me it is the last day of regular season baseball, the official end of summer, for me anyway.
The Washington Nationals were playing the Atlanta Braves for the last series of the season. The Nats had defeated the Braves the previous 3 games and for the Braves salvaging a game and for the Nats a sweep.
It would take 15 innings to decide this contest, the Nats defeated the Braves 2-1 and swept the series. I used to work in DC and the Nats have special place in my heart, I root for the Braves but I also like the Nats. See you in spring training when summer returns..enjoy..
