July 3, 2016 – Nationals 12, Reds 1 – Nationals Park

 
Attendance: 37,328
Game Time: 3:08
Weather: 75 degrees, cloudy
Wind: 1 mph
Umpires: Home Plate - Adrian Johnson, First Base - Ramon DeJesus, Second Base - Gary Cederstrom, Third Base - Eric Cooper
Seventh-inning stretch song: Can’t Stop The Feeling – Justin Timberlake
 
Highlights – in his return from the DL, Strasburg pitched 6 ⅔ hitless innings … Nats tied team record with 6 homers in the game, starting with a Wilson Ramos solo shot in the second … for the second time in 4 games, Danny Espinosa hit homers from each side of the plate, including a grand slam each time, totaling 15 RBI for the series (2 short of the major league record)
 
Other – was hot in the sun initially despite the mild temp, overcast and muggy later, with some light rain the last couple innings and on the way home … we arrived prior to the gates opening, beating most of the traffic and in time to get autograph vouchers (Rivero and Solis) … cheesesteak was better than I expected
