Gio Gonzalez, starting pitcher for the Washington Nationals, was seen shopping along M Street April 7 with friends and his dog, Stitch, a French bulldog, who really does look like the Disney character Stitch, just a lot calmer. Gonzalez, too, was taking it easy before he starts against the Philadelphia Phillies April 10 at Citizens Bank Park. The lefty, who hails from Florida, is part of the Nationals’ highly touted pitching rotation which includes Doug Fister, Max Scherzer, Stephen Strasburg and Jordan Zimmermann. Fun non-baseball fact: Gonzalez loves comic books and is a snazzy dresser.
