I remember that game. Mr. Control, Bob Tewksbury started against our very own Jose Rijo. They very first batter of the game, Ray Lankford, took Rijo deep. Bowden put together a hell of a lineup there: Bret Boone, Roberto Kelly, Joe Oliver? What's not to love?
ESPN’s Major League Baseball Opening Night telecast – Atlanta at Washington on March 30 in the debut of Nationals Park – averaged 2,700,000 households and 3,656,000 viewers to become the most-viewed Opening Night ever on ESPN networks.
