Take Metro to cheer for the Nationals this season – WMATA
Metro has issued a press release about Nationals Park Opening Day. Among the details:

On Monday, April 13, the regular season home opener for the Washington Nationals, Metro will start afternoon rush hour service at 1 p.m., a full two hours before the start of the baseball game. Metro expects to carry about 20,000 people to and from Nationals Park for the 3:05 p.m. game against the Philadelphia Phillies. With the game expected to conclude between 6 and 7 p.m., Metro will be operating rush hour service on all rail lines to accommodate the crowds.

Metro reminds everyone attending Monday’s home opener to expect large crowds at the Navy Yard Metrorail station, and the two main transfer stations to the Green Line, Gallery Place-Chinatown and L’Enfant Plaza. Metro will have personnel and Transit Police at all three stations.

Following the game, Metro volunteers sporting Nationals gear will be at the Navy Yard Metrorail station to remind patrons to check their SmarTrip card or farecard to ensure they have enough money to enter or exit the Metrorail system.

THe ride home could be a little hairy, maybe I can bum a ride off of someone back to Pentagon City where I am going to park.

Some good news, the forecast is slightly better (high 55° F) for Monday than it was yesterday.
