When I go to games I hit up the Franconia-Springfield metro station (blue line), and take it all the way to the Morgan Boulevard station, which is on the blue line as well (approx. 1 mile from Fedex, roughly a 10 minute walk). If you take Amtrak in, take it into Union Station, get on the Metro there on the red line, then switch to the blue line at Metro Center and take that to Morgan Boulevard. Like D-rave said give yourself extra time, because Metro does track work on almost every non-holiday weekend and you can suffer on average about 20 minutes of delays. That's been the average delay for me when I've taken Metro in the past and they have delays.
