“Dear PoPville,
I’m not sure if this is his doppelgänger, but I’m pretty sure Max Scherzer got out of the parade to dance with and take photos with everyone around us. Could put this out to see if anyone can confirm it?”
Ed. Note: Wasn’t Scherzer wearing a blue shirt? I also saw a photo of a Max Scherzer doppelgänger with two brown eyes…

From the Nationals:
“The World Series, presented by YouTube TV, is headed back to Houston for Games 6 and 7 (if necessary). Game 6 will take place at Minute Maid Park on Tuesday, October 29 at 8:07 p.m. ET and Game 7 is scheduled for Wednesday, October 30 at 8:08 p.m. ET.

To honor the Nationals bringing baseball back to D.C. after a 33-year absence, Chad Cordero and Brian Schneider of the inaugural 2005 Nationals will throw and catch the ceremonial first pitch on Friday night. (more…)
Ed. Note: It’s certainly not life or death but I’m also curious where you guys weigh in? I tend to agree with OP that residents should be given dibs for both nights before inviting guests. You guys?
“Dear PoPville,
I am a huge Nats fan, and after their win last night its looking like we could potentially win the World Series on Saturday night. Given how much I love the Nats, I choose to hand over thousands of dollars to live next to the stadium. Usually not worth it, but the chance to watch the World Series from my rooftop is once in a lifetime.
However, 1221 has now decided that residents can only pick ONE night to watch from the roof, we need to RSVP, and oddly enough we can bring two guests. Again, for only ONE game though. If I want to see Friday I can’t go on my own rooftop Saturday. (more…)
