The Potomac Nationals Booster Club will hold the first of two Silent Auctions tomorrow at Pfitzner Stadium (the next will be on Saturday, August 16). These are the primary fundraisers for this group, which provides food, housing, and general assistance to the players, their friends, and their families. They also sponsor monthly awards and recognize players with in-season birthdays. In short, the club helps make life just a little easier for the young men striving to make the journey from Potomac to Washington.
