A friend of mine from Australia is visiting D.C. later this month. He’s interested in seeing a baseball game, so I was talking with my dad and my brother Dylan about it. Since the Washington Nationals are so ridiculously bad, I told Dylan and my dad that I wasn’t sure if I should send Tom to watch the Nationals or a little kids’ t-ball game.
I loved my dad’s response. He said: “Send him to a Nats game, and tell him it’s t-ball. He’ll be surprised at how big the kids are and how well they play for that level.”
Nice one, Dad! (I’m not sure if the second part is true, but it’s still funny.)
I had the pleasure of watching the Phils sweep the Nats last weekend!! 🙂
Haha. Some teams you expect to beat. The Nats are a team you expect to sweep. But don’t get too carried away–the Mets will have just as many opportunities as your beloved Phillies!
