NEW: "Mr.3000", Almost,the true story of a Senator who was13 hits shy..at www.washingtonnationals.usNow you will hear the tale of the Washington Senators.The Washington Senators win or lose . . . how they playedthe game!The team was known variously as the Senators,the Nationals,and the Griffs or Griffmen, in honor of long-timeowner-manager Clark Giffith. The press, however, preferredthe sobriquet Nats. It provided a short, snarlingheadline, as in NATS LOSE AGAIN But the team by any name would have been as hapless.The Washingtonballclubwas Keystone Kops comedy and vaudevillianmelodrama rolled into one.
