Nationals Spring Training Review

I visited four Washington Nationals spring training games this year, all in Viera. While there I recieved Ian Desmond's autograph twice, Danny Espinosa's, and various minor leagers. Because I enjoyed the games so much, I've decided to write a review, of sorts, or the four that I visited.

The games were all great (including the loss against the Cardinals I watched). I was especially impressed by Danny Espinosa (I may be biased), Chris Marrero, Anthony Rendon, and Zach Walters. Viera is absolutely beautiful and I met some nice folks while waiting for autographs. The crowd was fired up and excitement was buzzing in the air. I was happier than I had ever been, and I wish I was still in Viera!

A word of advice to anyone considering a spring training trip - definitely do it! It's so much fun and absolutely memorable. Also, get there early for autographs! Spring training is the best place for autographs, especially if the Nats are away. If you go to an away game, you're more likely to get autographs.

I had a good time and I recommend Viera to all of you.
