Yesterday's home finale in Space Coast Stadium was washed out by rain, which stinks for the fans who turned up to say goodbye to Viera, Florida and the park the Washington Nationals have called home in the Spring since 2005.
The cancellation did, however, push Stephen Strasburg's planned start back a day and though Charlie and Dave would have painted pictures with words for us yesterday, we get to see Strasburg take on the St. Louis Cardinals with our own eyes today, since the game is being broadcast on MLB.tv.
Strasburg is scheduled to take the mound at 1:05 PM EDT against Cards' starter Adam Wainwright in the next-to-last game before the Nationals head north for this weekend's two-game exhibition set with the Minnesota Twins in Nationals Park.
