Another Nats Game!

After resting up from our morning adventure, Rich decided he wanted to go see the Nationals play the Baltimore Orioles. It was kind of a last minute decision, but we find that we can do things like that so much easier here since we hardly drive anywhere. While we have to allow time for getting to/from the metro stations and walking to our destination, we don't have to worry about traffic and looking for parking. 



I got pictures of Rich with all the presidents. Here he is with George.



You know my favorite part of the game - the 4th inning presidents race! Look at the lead Teddy has! Could this be the night he finally wins? With a lead like this how could he possibly lose?


Wouldn't you know it. Just 10 yards before the finish line the Baltimore Orioles mascot jumps out of nowhere and tackles poor Teddy. And even has the audacity to do a celebratory dance too! I forget who won the race.


Heh, heh. Teddy got his revenge. While he always has that big, goofy grin, standing there next to the oriole down on the ground that grin takes on a very mischievous quality. Not very presidential, but so, so funny.

And, while the Nats didn't win, it was a very close game. They lost 2-1.
