Twas the night before Opening Day. Excitement could be felt all around Washington D.C. Then it hit. Reports that one National had gotten Covid 19 and others had been in close contact. Moves were made to create a team, but Opening Day wast postponed anyways. Then the cases started to rise. One became four. Four became five. Then, by the new Opening Day, the amount of people left off the roster was 11. A true tragedy for the Nationals. But on April 6, 2021, the Nationals will host the Braves to start their season. A weaker roster? Sure. But baseball is back in Washington D.C.
