The Nationals will open the 2011 season at home for the second consecutive year, playing host to the Atlanta Braves, according to a release on the team's official Web site. The release said the Nationals will open the season on March 31 against the Braves, and play the first 12 games of their season against NL East opponents.

I'll have more on the full schedule once it's up on the Nationals' site.
