It was my dad’s birthday and the Marlins were in town for Livan Hernandez bobblehead night. Hernandez was a part of the 1997 Marlins World Series team when he was just 22 years old. He was the Opening Day starter for the Nats in 2005 and 2006, then returned to the team for the 2009-2011 seasons.
A game entry will come soon, but first here are pictures from the 18th time I’ve watched the Marlins at Nationals Park. If you click on one picture, a slideshow window will pop up and you can scroll through all of them.
