I had to put together a set of Nats trivia questions for a charity contest. I'll put my questions below, and the answer to each in a spoiler (FYI - the spoiler is the thick black line; you can reveal what is underneath by hovering your mouse over it). This set of questions proved to be more difficult than I thought, with no group scoring higher than 22 points and the low scoring 16. All questions are 3 points for a correct answer except as marked.
I'm thinking that you may need some quick trivia qs, so feel free to copy, or if you come up with your own, post them in this thread.

d) Rendon (tony 2 bags)
e) Sean Doolittle (2018 - not obi-Sean)
2) First Nats pitcher to throw a regular season pitch at Nats Park
