CIMPLE – A Curious Introvert's Musings & Photos about Life and Enjoyment

Curtain Call for Bryce Harper, Max Scherzer and Yunel Escobar

The curtain has fallen on the 2015 Washington Nationals season and, while the team has failed to reach the postseason and the preseason expectations of a World Series appearance, that does not mean it was not an exciting and enjoyable season to watch.  We only had the chance to see them play twice against the Cincinnati Reds at the Great American Ball Park, but thanks to MLB.com At Bat, I can say this season was exciting from Bryce Harper’s opening day home run to the next to final game and the final pitch of the year for DSC_1131Max Scherzer who threw his second no-hitter of the season (only the sixth player to achieve that feat).  A final curtain call for my three favorite Nationals, Bryce Harper, Max Scherzer and Yunel Escobar, who not only played some of the best baseball of their careers, but also provide hope for a great run at the 2016 World Series (these photos were included in earlier posts without the Photoshop adjustments).
