Lannan one of many Nats providing hope

By Bill Ladson / MLB.com

WASHINGTON -- Since they arrived in the nation's capital in 2005, the Nationals have always given back in the D.C. metro area, and '09 was no different.

For example, they visited wounded soldiers at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center, hosted numerous baseball clinics at Nationals Park and donated almost 100,000 tickets to various groups.

Left-hander John Lannan received the most recognition when it came to giving back in Washington. He was the Nats' candidate for the Roberto Clemente Award this season, which recognizes the player who combines giving back to the community with outstanding on-field skills.
