Let’s start this off with a show of hands: If you thought the Nats would sweep last night’s double header in Atlanta, raise your hand. Now, everyone who thought the Nats would get swept in last night’s double header in Atlanta, raise your hands. Now, the rest of you, who thought the Nats would split last night’s double header in Atlanta, raise your hands. Ok, now if DCist counted correctly, most of you thought the Nats would split last night’s double header. You’re a reasonable bunch; cautiously optimistic, maybe to a fault. Those of you who thought the Nats would get swept, well, you’re all a bunch of cranky pessimists. Those of you who thought the Nats would sweep the Braves last night, well, you’ve probably been spending too much time reading Thomas Boswell.
