Posted on 14 Mar 2012 by Marien Hornyak.
Ask a Washington Nationals fan what their prediction for the upcoming baseball season is, and many of them will talk about Wild Card games, playoff berths, and even World Series appearances (I’m a little bit more realistic, but admit that it would be nice if they made it to the postseason).

Posted on 29 Aug 2011 by Marien Hornyak.
The Washington Nationals have had a tough go of it lately, losing their last six games after having taken 2 of 3 from the Phillies. They are getting ready to visit the Braves this week before returning home for a series against the Mets.

Courage and Guts: Braves Outlast Giants in 11
Posted on 9 Oct 2010 by Mark Reichman.
Rick Ankiel, with one glorious swing of the bat and a magical flight of the ball deep into the San Francisco night, and into the ocean, earned the Braves a gutsy and fearless win. No one better symbolizes courage and resilience than Ankiel, who has bounced back from an utter meltdown as a pitcher to become an unlikely offensive hero, a moment he described as the pinnacle of his career to date...

Braves Had Zero Room For Error(s) Against Suffocating Lincecum

Tim Lincecum's masterful performance last night completely silenced Atlanta's bats, and no other phase of the game could make up for it – not Derek Lowe's excellent game and certainly not the Braves suspect defense.
