Beating the Diamondbacks 17-2 on Friday, the @Nationals tied for the 2nd most lopsided win here as, going back across all MLB franchises to call the D.C. area home, they trail only a win for the original 1886-89 Nationals of the NL (visiting the short-lived Indianapolis Hoosiers) pic.twitter.com/Im0LOn1aBz
Smacking a 2-run homer for the @Nationals against the Cardinals this afternoon, Ryan Zimmerman has now got 695 extra base hits in his career. That ties Baseball HOF'er Sam Rice (1915-33 on the Senators) for the most by a player with a Washington D.C. MLB franchise (1871-present) pic.twitter.com/jfPrMgVB0e
