Danny Espinosa hit a long homerun last night against Scottsdale. The fences are 360 down the lines and 430 to center field. The weather has been great and the stadiums are nice.</p> We are in AZ for two weeks and were disappointed that Stephen did not pitch in the Rising Stars game and are really looking forward to seeing him pitch Saturday night.

Which makes today's and tomorrow's games (Solar Sox vs. Phoenix) very important for those who would like to see Strasburg and the rest of our prospects on TV.</p> I think we can reasonably assume he will, unless the Nats have concerns about innings.

That would be the following Saturday. That game is being televised, and will likely include several Nats if Phoenix makes it.</p> I wonder if he’ll start the Championship game(assuming they hold on to their division lead).
