Pirates lose to Nationals, 2-1<\/b><\/a>– Pittsburgh Post-Gazette<\/i>
A few good plays, a few sloppy errors, a few batters (read Guillen) hit by pitches, a few moments of auditioning for “Not So Great Moments in Sports” (anyone else remember that?) when all the outfielders converged to catch a fly ball but miss it (what would have topped that would be if they all would have collided) . . . normal night at RFK.<\/p>\n

Drese Gets Good Start at Home<\/b><\/a>– Post<\/i>
More a recap of the series with the Pirates than of Ryan Drese’s<\/b> performance.<\/p>\n

Good news in D.C.<\/b><\/a>– Richmond.com<\/i>
Richmond article asks a few good questions, namely why the Nats aren’t getting the national attention it deserves–because some still equate it to last year’s Expos. There’s a slightly biased tone to the article (possibly out of bitterness that Hampton Roads didn’t get a team?), but doesn’t overlook the challenges and obstacles the Nats face, like Peter Angelo$’s<\/b> continued meddling or the conditions of RFK.<\/p>\n

Church, Johnson out but not on DL<\/b><\/a>– The Times<\/i>
C’mon, why is everyone getting hurt? Also includes a bit on the DC Council’s continued politicking over the labor agreement for the new stadium.<\/p>\n
