WASHINGTON - It will be a local affair when the Nationals cut the ribbon on their new stadium next year in Southeast D.C.

The Nats will play the Orioles in an exhibition game Saturday, March 29 of 2008.

No single tickets will be sold for the exhibition game.

The free tickets for that game will be distributed to season ticketholders, construction workers who built the stadium in Southeast and D.C. children.

The first regular season game will either be the following Friday, April 4, 2008 or Monday, April 7, 2008. Major League Baseball has not yet decided.
