From a press release:
Due to unprecedented demand and excitement surrounding the Washington Nationals first NL East Division Championship, the team will release a limited number of Standing Room Only tickets this afternoon in advance of the National League Division Series games.
Beginning at 4:00 p.m. today, Wednesday, October 3, Nationals fans can purchase Standing Room Only tickets at nationals.com/postseason or via phone by calling 888.632.NATS(6287). Standing Room Only tickets can be purchased for $30 each on a first come, first served basis, and will be limited to two tickets per transaction.
In addition, the Nationals will sell a select number of Standing Room Only tickets on the day of each NLDS game at the Nationals Park Box Office, located at the Center Field Gate, once the Box Office opens. Standing Room Only tickets are non-exchangeable and non-refundable.
“unprecedented demand” aka scalpers and brokers.
Gonna be a shitshow at 4pm!
So if these are non-refundable, do you get screwed over if they don’t play a Game 4 or Game 5?
The non-refundable ones are sold day of only.
How does that work? Stadiums like anything else have a max occupancy limitation for fire and safety standards. How many “standing room only” tickets are they even allowed to sell?
not working
I got game 2 to work, but not 1. Might want to try that.
gotem
My god the ticketing website SUCKS
worked fine for me
Got pairs for SRO tix for both Game 1 and Game 2. They finally started working around 4:05pm.

I had no issue at all around 4:01 picking up 2 tickets for game 1. I guess I got lucky on that end.
