Pretty big crowds this weekend. Star Wars day and Michigan diaspora of course has something to do with it, but still...

Does the umpires' union have compromising photos of Manfred? It seems like notwithstanding the experiments with robo-umps, the umpires don't even care to improve their strike-calling.

Clear K called a BB. So a run...

Get it back, Nats!
