IN THE COMMUNITY
August 15
IAVA Night - The Nationals will honor local military veterans as part
of the annual Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) Night,
presented by Miller High Life. Miller will host more than 200 veterans
and their families to a pregame BBQ where several Nationals players will
be on hand for photos and autographs. Select veterans will participate
in pregame ceremonies. Nationals players and coaches will also wear
the teams patriotic uniforms featuring the Stars and Stripes Curly W.

DATE IN DC BASEBALL HISTORY

August 15 (6-2 all-time on this date)
2006 - Pedro Astacio went the distance, scattering 2 hits, as the Nationals
blanked ATL, 5-0, at RFK. Astacio was brilliant, allowing only a pair of
singles (Adam LaRoche, Brian McCann) to become the 2nd-oldest pitcher
to throw a shutout in franchise history (38 year-old Woody Fryman in 1978
was the oldest). The shutout was the 12th (and last) of Astacios career,
and his 31st (and last) complete game. Bernie Castros 2-out RBI bunt
single in the 2nd inning provided all the offense Astacio would require.
