I believe that will be the first home game that the GW Baseball team has played in the District of Columbia in many years (their home field since 1993 has been Barcroft Park in a metro-inaccessible area of Arlington). It will be just a few days after the Pope celebrates Mass in the stadium. Good for them.
any idea on how to get tickets in advance for the GWU game?
