After years and years of campaigns to bring back baseball, after a rush to pick up season tickets, is this the most people that the Washington Nationals can manage to attract? For this, Metro decided to hold the system open late?

The picture is misleading. It was a day game that started at 1:05 PM. The attendance for that game was over 30K which is fantastic for a day game during the work week. And the Metro didn’t stay open late but it did make rush hour a little more crowded.
