·

I figured I would grab even more coverage of opening night. I found some in a few other papers I normally read, which by coincidence are from Pennsylvania, including the Patriot-News, paper of record for the AA affiliate Senators. I also grabbed the spring training and opposition papers of record. First of though, some photo galleries (all popups) from The Post, USA Today, The Times, and nationals.com. There are some good features and multimedia that “was not subject to the approval of Major League Baseball” on the nationals.com Opening Day coverage page.

Patriot-News

  • D.C. united behind new team – Patriot-News

    The Express-Times (Easton, Penna.)

  • Schneider likes new digs (From Cliff’s neck of the woods!)

    The Arizona Republic

  • Capital savors fitting victory
  • Nats welcome stable home
  • D.C. abuzz over Nationals’ home opener

    Florida Today

  • D.C. dandy in debut
  • Programs a hot ticket at RFK

    Post-Gazette

  • Fans delight at baseball in D.C.
  • Baseball finally returns to Washington, D.C.

    The Inky

  • Baseball finally returns to Washington, D.C.

    Some good articles from the last few days that I did not have time to grab.

  • The night baseball left D.C. – Patriot-News
    The best account of the last Senators game I have seen.
  • First-pitch link with JFK will be hard to top at RFK – The Sun
  • Field of renewed dreams – The Sun
  • John Saraceno – Hearty Howard personifies past to be treasured – USA Today
  • Jayson Stark – Nationals learn baseball in D.C. is different – ESPN.com
  • Tim Kurkjian – More to Wilkerson’s repertoire than hitting cycles – ESPN.com

    Wow, that is a lot of articles — that is going to do it for me until Monday morning. I am headed “home” to Happy Valley for a quick daytrip (wedding stuff) and want to get out early tomorrow morning. That and I am kind of tired. Enjoy the weekend — go catch another Nats game or two at RFK.
