Well, fans, the season is over.  Even with 86 games in the win column, people thought the Nationals underperformed this year because they were pre-season favorites for the World Series.

I still think the season was successful.  They ended up only 4 games behind the Reds for the 2nd Wild Card spot and took 2nd in the NL East.

To help you remember the exciting moments, this week I am counting down the Top 30 Moments of the 2013 Nationals season.  Today we start at #30 and start counting backwards.  Look for the rest of the Top 30 in 2 more posts this week.  You can click on the links to see video.

Also, keep following @MattsBats on Twitter and reading MattsBats.com online during the offseason.  I have some exciting things that I am planning to write about during the offseason to keep you interested for the next 182 days until Opening Day on March 31, 2014.
