Excellent. It’s a raincheck from June, when he opted to be in Hershey for the calder Cup finals.

Go Gabby Go!

I might actually try to make this, although I’m not sure if I’ll be able to find anyone willing to join me.

I would be cool to see some Caps fans come out to cheer Gabby on, although I have a feeling there would have been a better turnout earlier this year when originally scheduled (just cause hockey was fresher in everyone’s minds)

I am going to lobby my posse to head to this game, and we usually tailgate at RFK before the game. just look for a white OV jersey and come ask for some paint. I’ll know who it is… LOL

I’d like to go, and would be pleased to meet any other Rink Rats as want to attend as well.

Would like to be a fly on the wall for this summit:

“Mr. Boudreau, we’d like you to meet Mr. Plush. Mr. Plush, Mr. Boudreau.”

Fortunately, I understand walk-up tickets are generally available for Nats games…

Just a reminder, that Nats tend to throw out the ceremonial first pitch 10-15 minutes ahead of the 7:05 start time.

The Birdie family may wander on over for some cheap thrills (Strasburg is rumored to maybe be there as well)

Here’s the video. He hit the dirt , but atleast he got it past the plate before he did. It’s at about 2:34.
