Nationals Park, Sec. 106

Here's a pic of Smoltz long-tossing after the rain delay, before the Saturday game in Washington.

This is the view from section 106... landing site for Francoeur's HRs that day!

did you catch either of his homers?

[Pere]

No. I was pretty close, though. If I'd had a fish net with a four-foot pole, I could have snagged them.

By the way, notice the flowers in front of the rail here. I liked this little feature, which only seems to be in this area between the left foul pole and the bullpen.

yea, i really wanted to go up there this weekend (since I live in richmond), but I couldn't get anyone to go with me. Probably will go up at the end of the month, even If I have to go it alone. From the 4 games I have seen on tv there, the stadium looks really nice. Can you park close to the stadium for cheap? Or is it better to take the tram?

The cheapest parking area is $15, I think, and it is much farther from the ballpark than the nearest couple of Metro stations. The parking garages right by the ballpark are reserved for season ticket holders and such. Take the train.
