Senators Weekly Review: April 3 – April 13

I know I know, the dates referenced above are longer then a week. I really didn’t see a point in posting this last Thursday just so the title was correct. My initial plan, prior to the start of the season, was to post a weekly review (Monday –Sunday). I will try to have the “review” posted each week at some point on Monday. The review would include a who’s hot/ who’s not list, Player of the Week (based on my players of the game for that week), record for the week, overall standings, various stats, and when available a few game photos from that week. As time goes by I will probably add and subtract things as the “Senators Weekly Review” continues to evolve. Hopefully you enjoy this….

Sorry no photos this week.
Many of you have already heard this, when the Senators were home the weather was cold and wet. As soon as they went on the road it was sunny and warm. Hopefully we have sun later this week when they return to town . One thing I learned photographing baseball over the past few years is, there are a lot of games and plenty of opportunity to take photos.
