Called the Washington senators blast left in 1971.

At a at a playoff team here since 1933.

We spoke to the first television play by play announcer for the Washington senator sort of back of the 1940s he -- even back then.

The senators in Washington baseball.

That of the senators one that opening game and based on the season before.

Anybody else because the president throughout the first volatile they made this look special occasion.

I knew that the senators won that game that can be the only time all you like DBL the center -- -- first.

Clintons deliver a -- way there.

And you've seen a really good change here in Washington DC typically when it first started to have a lot of fans of the teams committee -- or somebody transplants here.

But now I mean solid -- stands here today against the cardinals' first -- 1 o'clock.

Yeah -- it's the curse of Teddy I'm here with Scott -- -- -- he's.

The writer the owner of the let Teddy -- but it in pure DC fashion by the way he was just on a conference call on his way here this is -- we -- in DC so.

Teddy was scoreless.

Who are afraid that the fact that they let Teddy wind is gonna somehow change the net -- I've always been on the side.

If Teddy wins every game next year 81 home game today when the World Series.

Absolutely I think you know he lost 525.

Consecutive races.

He's in a deep hole in terms of a lifetime standings I think it's time for him to go on a streak.

Let Teddy just keep on winning as long as an answer -- They does not look good luck to you -- international -- first Fitch.

Oh about an hour nobody -- and you mascot race quite like rich -- there outside the ball -- enjoy the -- rich.
