Second time we've kept a team to 3 runs and lost

this homestand.

[JCA-CrystalCity]

6 losses when giving up 3 or fewer runs. 8 wins when the Nats score 3 or fewer runs.

Playoff vibe at the park tonight. Can’t remember the last time games mattered this late in a season.

At least in my section folks were paying attention to the game and stayed until the end. Everyone was standing for Louie's final AB.

At this point, that should be expected with so few fans. Anyone whose there is either a fan of the team, or heavily invested (emotionally) in the Nationals.

But Sunday's game had about 21k there. Most important game in five years, a Sunday day game, and it was half full.

[Squab]

36 and 30k on friday and saturday to be fair

'Bout had my fill of the Tarps-Off Gang...

Just another example of something which maybe works within the confines of the college environment, but then morphs into something completely different when it escapes into the wild...

it was pretty tame last night, maybe a dozen or so people and very few chants. Could be because there were about 50 or so Marines sitting in the section below them.
