SEATTLE (AP) — Even after hitting his first career home run, Robert Hassell III didn’t have much time to hang around the clubhouse and talk about it.His girlfriend was waiting.

Eager to meet her at the team hotel, Hassell hustled onto the Washington bus Wednesday night and — with the help of a Nationals staffer — fielded questions from reporters via cellphone.“I don’t want to have her waiting too long,” Hassell said. “My apologies.”Playing his sixth major league game, Hassell had three hits and two RBIs for the Nationals in

The 23-year-old prized outfield prospect was drafted eighth overall by San Diego in 2020 and traded to Washington — along with James Wood, CJ Abrams and MacKenzie Gore — for Juan Soto and Josh Bell in a blockbuster deal at the August 2022 deadline.Hassell was called up from the minors last Thursday but began the night batting .118 (2 for 17) with one RBI since making his debut. Before the game, Nationals manager Dave Martinez pulled Hassell aside and advised him to focus on the present rather than allowing himself to become over-amped.

“You want to try to do a lot,” Martinez said. “But, this game is tough enough. It’s tough enough.”

Hassell responded with by far his best performance yet. He hit an RBI single in the fourth inning and a solo homer in the eighth that made it 7-0.The structures are attuned to their natural environment and add to the state’s sense of place, Kiersten Faulkner, executive director of Historic Hawaii Foundation says. “In Hawaii, of course, that’s all rooted in Native Hawaiian culture, local building materials.”

Builders often looked to the past for inspiration, she says. That includes using traditional features like pili grass thatching and rock walls made from local volcanic stone.After Western contact, the architecture evolved to incorporate joinery, with techniques that came out of shipbuilding, Faulkner says, and skilled carpenters from Japan popularized pocket doors and single-wall construction. Missionaries brought whitewashing and fenced gardens; sugarcane and pineapple plantations popularized arts-and-crafts style bungalows, where workers lived.
