Washington Nationals President Stan Kasten pulled a 1990s-era Abe Pollin on Philly sports radio the other day when he begged Phillies fans to come down to DC for the home opener.
“It will be fun, and I think Philly’s our best, closest National League rival. We always have great games with them here, because there’s so many Philly kids in college here. So we always have great, enthusiastic crowds, and we hope you all come back again. We have an opening day here Monday, we’d love for all our Philly fans to come down, because I know it’s gonna be so hard to get tickets in Philadelphia this year. It’ll bemuch easier if you drive down the road and come see us in Washington.”
Pathetic, Stan. Seriously pathetic. Shouldn’t the Nats at least try to market the team in DC before marketing the stadium to other towns?
