March 31 We only had one game on Sunday, but it was a good one as the Washington Nationals opened up their new ballpark with a 3-2 win over the Atlanta Braves, thanks to a walk-off home run by third baseman Ryan Zimmerman in the ninth inning. Braves? starter Tim Hudson had a tough first inning but left the game after seven innings having retired his last 19 batters. Twelve of his 21 outs were ground balls. Nationals? first baseman Nick Johnson had a nice season debut after missing all of 2007 with a broken leg. He had an RBI double in the first inning and had a few good cuts against Hudson. With Johnson and Dmitri Young, the Nationals have a good one-two punch at first base. Finally, we will leave you with three games to watch on the ?real opening day.? The Toronto Blue Jays open at the New York Yankees as both teams have something to prove in 2008. In Los Angeles, the Dodgers start the Joe Torre era by hosting the rival San Francisco Giants with Barry Zito taking on Brad Penny. As the night wears down, check out the Houston Astros at the San Diego Padres with Roy Oswalt going up against Jake Peavy.
