Good lord, Nats please sweep this thing.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-says-hell-attend-game-5-of-the-world-series-at-nationals-park-if-it-is-played-sunday/2019/10/24/0db65ea6-f6a5-11e9-8cf0-4cc99f74d127_story.htmlPresident Trump said Thursday that he plans to attend Game 5 of the World Series at Nationals Park on Sunday if the Washington Nationals and Houston Astros are still playing, though he will not throw the ceremonial first pitch.
“They’ve got to dress me up in a lot of heavy armor — I’ll look too heavy,” he responded when a reporter asked him about whether he would take the mound. Trump appeared to be making a reference to a bulletproof vest that presidents sometimes are required to wear by Secret Service when they are amid large crowds. A team official confirmed later that he will not take part in that on-field tradition.

He would get booed…
Has he ever been to a Nats game?
He should throw out the first pitch tomorrow but…
I have a friend, a Yankees fan, who thinks W throwing the first pitch in the World Series after 9-11 was amazing..I didn’t want to get into an argument with him so I went along in the interest of comity but damn it if that isn’t ridiculous

yeah, i am really a die-hard Mets fan….Nats are more for entertainment purposes only….found 2 together for around $560 but in reallty bad seats….so I am gonna pass (for now).
i'm sure prices will drop just before the game, but per stubhub you can't get into the park on friday for less than $650 (SRO), while the cheapest seat is $800 (Sec 241, row L).
your $280 for a seat is now looking like a good deal…
welp, blew that call: cheapest SRO is now $925, cheapest seat is $1,180. at these prices, will anyone other than lobbyists be there???

Four figure prices to stand, losing three games at home by a combined 19-3 score, and that stupid baby shark crap. What a bunch of rich, elitist morons the rest of the country must think we are. Even Trump is probably laughing.
That's ok. Once Bernie or Liz get elected, the max salary will be 150K (for everyone, not just baseball players!) and all the profits from baseball games with go to pay for Medicare for all.

you're getting very personally wrapped up in the performance of a bunch of over-paid grown men chasing a ball… you might want to take a step back and reexamine a few things.

Depressing
We need a 6 inning at least lights out game from Stras and Max to pitch game 7
Otherwise we are done
In the World Series giving up 4 runs is like giving up 6 in the regular season
If I see Rodney pitch again I will freak

Don't you just want to flick that hat off his head? It would be the last 10 seconds of my life but what a way to drop.
