Nationals Starting Another Long Road Trip

Lately it seems the Washington Nationals are always on the road. They are starting an eight game road trip after a brief four games at Nationals Park that came on the heels of a tough nine game road trip.

The Nats will be playing a quick, but very important two games at their NL East rival New York Mets beginning tonight. The Mets are 19-22 and trail the Nats who are 20-21 by a game in the division standings.

After the Mets series the Nats will travel to play the Baltimore Orioles in interleague play for three games and then head north to finish their trip with three games against the Milwaukee Brewers.
