The Nationals start their road trip with a 3 game series in Philadelphia. Tanner Roark will get this Memorial Day start and the teams will be wearing camo caps, and jerseys with camo lettering and numbers to honor the armed forces and in memory of all who gave their lives for the United States of America.
