Spirits were high the morning fishwrap leading up to Opening Day in Washington, with talk of the ‘window’ to win seemingly going on forever into the future. The commish was on hand to throw out the first pitch in the wake of the official announcement that the Nationals would host the 2018 All Star game.
And then there was Max Scherzer. Boy, he was throwing pellets today. He sat down the first 15 or so hitters and then things got sticky. The Nationals only run on the day was the above swing of beauty by Harper that ended up in the seats. It would appear that Bryce Harper gets up to play on Opening Day; and Bartolo Colon was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. I cannot believe that Bartolo Colon is still starting Opening Day games.
The Nats lost the game 3-1 because their middle infield tandem is Dan Uggla and Yunel Escobar. I should have thought long and hard about that before I said they would win the 2015 World Series.
Hopefully, this is the start of something beautiful that lasts 161 more games for Harper.
