While the outcome from the Nationals' World Series homestand was not what DC baseball fans wanted, the outpouring of support for the team around the region has been well-documented over the last three days.

"Of the 16.6 million living in the Nats fan-base area, 9.6 million were born in one of these three states or the District of Columbia.

"These 12.0 million people have strong ties to the Nats fan-base area and can claim longer-term loyalty to the Nats."
A twelve-million strong fan-base admittedly seems a bit on the high side, but we'll need all the help we can get on Tuesday and Wednesday.
