Here's a little something we may try to do more of in the future here at Nats News Network, providing audio or video of Jim Riggleman's pre- and post-game press conferences. I know we're a little late on this today, figuring the press conference took place 14 hours ago now, and 14 hours on the internet is an eternity.
But consider this a trial run. If you like this and want to see more of it, just leave a comment or send an email at natsnewsnetwork@gmail.com.

Remember, today's game is at 4:35 pm. Livan Hernandez (2-0) faces Ubaldo Jimenez (3-0). Both pitchers had outstanding starts last time out, Hernandez with a complete-game four-hit shutout and Jimenez with a no-hitter against Atlanta.
Also, Ryan Zimmerman will sit out today due to lingering soreness in his right hamstring. He pulled up coming into second base last night on a double in the seventh inning. This injury is not related to the left hamstring injury that kept him out of five games last week.
As soon as we get to the park we'll get an update on Zimmerman, and find out if there is any more info on Jason Marquis, or the pitcher destined to replace him Friday.
Thanks for the video, what a great addition.
