Jayson Werth Meets Nats Fan Gnome, Pulls His Beard

On Monday night, during the Nats game against the Braves, Nationals super fan @TracyTran went to Nats Park in full Jayson Werth Gnome outfit. The occasion was a special Social Media night at the ballpark, and several fans were selected to go down on the field and participate in some pregame activities. The gnome was one of those lucky fans and during warm ups he walked over and encountered his human alter ego, Jayson Werth.  And of course Werth did this:

Kozma Trippin' At The Nats Game Last Night

Here is a video taken from the crowd at Nats Park last night during the Washington Nationals Loss to the St. Louis Cardinals.  It is a bunch of Pete Kozma's at bats with some commentary.  There is only one catch.  It's shot in Kozma-Vision.

Here's Ian Desmond signing an autograph for a fan in a Bryce Harper mask.  I don't think that Desmond even notices.

A Young Fan's Touching Farewell Letter To Michael Morse

Michael Morse has been traded to the Seattle Mariners and I myself am devastated  Morse left a heartwarming  thank-you message to fans on his Facebook and Twitter pages, letting the Nats faithful know that he would miss them, even adding the sentiment that they were the best fans in baseball. An overwhelming reaction followed the announcement of the trade, and the Nationals fans on Twitter sent thousands of well-wishes towards Morse.

But, Nationals fans shouldn't be too sad. Although Morse will no longer be a National, as an American Leaguer you can still watch him play and cheer for him without feeling too bad. When the Mariners play the Orioles, for example, you can head down to Camden yards and show him some love. Twitter is another fun way to keep up with Morse as well.  And while the DC is no longer in @The_Beast38, you can still drop him a message.

I for one was an enormous Michael Morse fan and I have composed this small message for one of my favorite players of all time:

Dear Michael Morse,

I wanted to express my gratitude to a guy who made watching baseball five times more exciting.  You are the coolest dude ever, and I am so glad I got to see you play all these years. 

Thank you for signing autographs for me and I hope we cross paths again someday, whether you're a Mariner or maybe even a National again. Your energy brought so much to the team and you brightened my day with your antics, on-field and off. 

Your most memorable moment and legacy to the city of DC is your Take On Me walk-up song and I will surely miss hitting those high notes (well almost hitting them).  That tradition became my favorite part of visiting Nationals Park. 

Anyway, thank you, from me, for making 2012 that much more amazing. We'll always miss our Beast in DC. Best of luck to you in Seattle.

Sincerely,

Sandra L.

I'm really gonna miss that guy...You can watch the Nexus video tribute here...and hey look...Michael and Desmond read my letter!

Nats Up 1 Run In The 9th Inning Of An Important September Game, Great Time For A Nap

On Friday night, this lady had pretty good seats for the Washington Nationals vs the Milwaukee Brewers, a game that was important for the Nationals to win their Division.  The Nats were up just 1 run, but this lady decided that it was the perfect time for a nap.  Well lady, you missed a Tyler Clippard blown save.  WAKE UP!

Those ladies, described as "beauties" by Bob Carpenter, are wearing what FP Santangelo calls the Larry Leadoff Starter Kit.  Read About It Here.  Originally FP called a guy with the beard a Rally Sasquatch.
