Weather: 82 degrees, cloudy

Umpires: Home Plate - Quinn Wolcott, First
Base - Mark Carlson, Second Base - Clint Fagan, Third Base - Brian Gorman
U338, Row 25, Seat 1 – halfway between third
and home, very top row of the stadium (I requested something under cover since
I realized I forgot to pack an umbrella)
Highlights – Nats rallied from a 3-0
first-inning deficit for the win … Werth (who tied Nats record by reaching base
in 43 consecutive games) got things started with a two-run shot in the third …
Bryce reached base all 5 times and knocked in the winning run with a
seventh-inning double … Trea Turner stole another two bases … Treinen relieved
Solis with two on and one out in the bottom of the seventh and induced an
inning-ending DP on his first and only pitch … Melancon needed only 4 pitches
to retire the Rockies in order in the ninth for the save
Other – Scherzer was lifted for a
pinch-hitter in the top of the fifth, after needing 97 pitches to get through 4
innings … concession prices very reasonable by DC standards ($7.75 draft beer,
$5.75 grilled chicken sandwiches) … unbelievably pleasant weather after
escaping the Washington heat wave
