Today, we continue our look back at the first Washington Nationals team to play their home game at Nats Park. Our first player we looked at was center fielder Lastings Milledge. Now, we shift our focus to the infield with Ronnie Belliard.
Before signing with the Washington Nationals, Belliard played his first nine seasons with three different teams (Milwaukee Brewers, Cleveland Indians, St. Louis Cardinals). While with the Indians, he made the American League All-Star team in 2004 as he finished the year hitting .282 with 12 home runs and 70 RBI’s.
