The Washington Nationals and the Pittsburgh Pirates are currently going head-to-head in a four-game series and it came at a perfect time as the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Washington Capitals just happen to be duking it out in the second round of the NHL Playoffs.
Ahead of Game 3 between the two NHL clubs, members of the Nationals showed some love for the Caps by rocking all sorts of different Capitals-themed hats during batting practice, with the most popular one being the ‘ALLCAPS’ design.
The Nationals also trolled the Penguins and the city of Pittsburgh on Monday night by offering special tickets for the price of $10.57, with the special code ‘NOGOAL’.
The Capitals have only defeated the Penguins in a playoff series once out of their 10 playoff matchups, with their only one coming back in 1994 when they eliminated the Penguins in six games in the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.
