Kristina's friend, Aline, flew in yesterday. They got a lot of sight-seeing in yesterday afternoon but this morning they weren't quite sure what they wanted to do. I found out from the Let Teddy Win blog that the Nationals were playing. And it was free t-shirt Tuesday. And that friends of Teddy (I guess people who subscribe to the blog) could get half price tickets! Being May 5th, the t-shirts had a Cinco de Mayo theme with a picture of Teddy wearing a sombrero and the caption "¡Corre Teddy, Corre!" Even Screech got into it with a sombrero and serape.
The president mascots have been racing around the outfield during home games since 2006 and Teddy has never won. Ever. Hence the blog. You can see from this picture that he didn't win today either. I guess that sombrero he's wearing really slowed him down.
Oh, the Nats were playing the Houston Astros. The game was tied in the 11th inning when it had to be suspended on account of rain. They'll finish the game in July when the Nats travel to Houston.
