Nats Park a bit bland

 
The Mets have arrived at yet-to-be-corporately-named Nationals Park. For a new stadium, it’s kind of nondescript. You can see the Capitol from the press box (see first picture), but not from the lower levels or the field. Here are a couple of shots, including coaches Sandy Alomar Sr., Rick Peterson and Guy Conti in the outfield as the Mets took early batting practice. *** The Nats will honor Jackie Robinson’s legacy tonight. Lastings Milledge, Ray King and Willie Harris will wear No. 42. [link]
