This is the stuff of nightmares, right here.

BREAKING: Max Scherzer has the tightest pants in all the land. Scherzer and his wife, Erica May Scherzer, donned the matching costumes which came from a "Fallon" skit starring Will Ferrell. On the plus side, it looks like Scherzer and his wife have made up after their jersey-related spat a few days ago.

These lucky D.C. Little Leaguers got to hang out with the Nationals
It's not every day that we get a glimpse at the system called the D.C. Little League that is churning out dozens of young children to fuel the next Nationals youth movement in the 2020s. It appears that Dusty Baker and a number of Nationals players went out to inspire these children and reveal to them the deep secrets of the hard work ethic that makes every baseball player great. We have every confidence that the program is a positive influence for these children. Also, they look snazzy in those uniforms.

Too Many Nats (the sitcom)
This was created by a Nats fan on reddit who calls himself dungeonmasterlvl4. All credit goes to him or her. The Nationals on Reddit community has talent. There are some seriously funny bits both in the clips chosen, such as the Bathoarder stare, and in the character names, such as Trea Turner. It's worth a second or third watch :)
