Final Hour Fun Fact. Quick Hits with a DVR from Vassegh at Nationals Park.

The Washington Nationals kicked off their 21st season with a mix of optimism and competitive spirit on Opening Day, though they suffered a 7-3 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies in extra innings. MacKenzie Gore made a spectacular debut, striking out 13 batters and allowing just one hit over six innings.
