Nats fans — don’t let the Phillies pull a fast one on this city again.
As of right now Phillies Nation is soliciting the baseball faithful of Philadelphia to jump on a bus and turn Nationals Park into Citizens Bank Park South.
You didn’t like it the first time back on Opening Day when they stood around booing not only the Nationals, D.C. and the National Anthem but causing a drunken ruckus on the Nats home turf.
The Phillies return to Washington for a three game series starting Friday July 30. There’s plenty of time to ensure that the Opening Day Phillie fan frenzy doesn’t happen a second time this season.
So if you have any shred of pride for this District and for Nationals baseball, prove it over the weekend of July 30 – August 1.
Rachel moved to DC in the fall of 2005 to study Journalism and Music at American University. When she’s not keeping up with the latest Major League Baseball news, she works on making music as an accomplished singer-songwriter and was even a featured performer/speaker at TEDxDupont Circle in 2012. Rachel has also contributed to The Washington Examiner and MASN Sports’ Nationals Buzz as a guest blogger. See why she loves DC. E-Mail: rachel@welovedc.com.
News flash: throwing money at a team of professional athletes, none of whom has any connection to DC or gives a crap about our city, has nothing to do with having pride in the District.
We are already here, living among you…

Sorry, Rach. There are more of us already in town than you realize… ;)
Of course you are, it beats living in Philly. You guys are getting as bad as the Pittsburgh Diaspora.
Props to Carl for those sentiments.
