... for any random crumb that might pique the taste of Washington fans. What did they find down there? BLOGGERS!
Washington invited the entire Nats blogosphere to hang out in the press box and participate in a press conference on Saturday night. Bloggers got the chance to interview stars like Nick Johnson and Ryan Zimmerman and hurl hard-hitting questions at them like "Are you on Facebook?" Oh please friendster me, Willie Harris!
