From June to October 2012, Washington, D.C., writer Elliott Smith compiled his first book, "Beltway Boys: The Rise of the Nationals." In a matter of months, first-time book author Elliott Smith was able to capture the rise of the Washington Nationals, outline the history of the Montreal Expos and highlight two current principal players in doing so. Drafted in 2009, Stephen Strasburg made his MLB debut for the Nationals on June 8, 2010, against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Having been one of the best collegiate pitchers for San Diego State University, Strasburg become starting pitcher for the Nats, after being deemed "most-hyped pick in draft history" by ESPN in 2009. In 2010, Bryce Harper was drafted by the Nats. Although he didn't make his MLB debut until April 28, 2012, and worked his way up the minor-league ladder, Harper was indeed drafted when he was 17. On May 6, 2012 against the Phillies, Harper became the first teenager to steal home plate in more than 45 years. Now almost 21 years old, Harper has a batting average of.274, 187 hits, and 34 home runs. Author of "Beltway Boys, " Smith, a Northwestern University journalism alum, has always held sports close to his heart. "I always knew I wanted to be a sportswriter, " Smith said during his June 8 book signing at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History.
