The big headline from the three World Series games at Nationals Park this weekend is that the teams are headed back to Houston. Amid hopes that the home team would sweep the series, making Sunday’s Game 5 unnecessary, the Nats went in a different direction—instead, losing all three games held in Navy Yard.

So, if you looked at the scoreboard early on during any of those games, saw a big doughnut next to the Nats’ name, and decided to go to a costume party instead, we’ve got you covered with a primer of everything you missed.

Scalper Arrested

D.C. police announced that detectives arrested a man on charges of first degree fraud after he sold counterfeit World Series tickets before Friday’s Game 3 near the stadium.

Police accuse Ondre Nelson, a 54 year old from Huntington, West Virginia, of selling five fake tickets to a man for $2,000. He was arrested that same evening and pleaded not guilty on Saturday in D.C. Superior Court. Law enforcement issued warnings about both digital and in-person ticket scams.

Max Scherzer Scratched From Lineup After Neck Injury

Mad Max, among the Nats’ most beloved and intense players, was slated to start Game 5, after his performance in Game 1 helped cinch an on-the-road victory. But he woke up Sunday morning with neck spasms and had to bow out.

“When I woke up this morning I was completely locked up … It became impossible just to do any menial task whatsoever today,” he said before the game. “I’ve pitched through so much crap in my life. I’m as disappointed as I possibly can be not to be [starting]. It’s Game 5 of the World Series.”

As Scherzer prepares for a potential Game 7 start, Joe Ross took to the mound instead on Sunday.

Instagram Influencers Banned From MLB After Flashing

Two women, later identified as Shagmag founder Julia Rose and brand executive Lauren Summer, were standing behind home plate in the seventh inning of Game 5 in yellow Shagmag t-shirts until, well, they weren’t wearing t-shirts anymore. Both Rose and Summer lifted up their shirts to flash Astros pitcher Gerritt Cole while Nats first baseman Ryan Zimmerman was at the plate. The women were removed from the ballpark.

Rose posted a letter from David Thomas, Major League Baseball’s vice president of security and ballpark operations, which states that she “violated the fan code of conduct by exposing yourself during the 7th inning, in order to promote a business. You were also part of a scheme in which you induced others to expose themselves to promote the business. You are hereby banned from all Major League Baseball stadiums and facilities, indefinitely.” (MLB confirmed to USA Today that the letter is legitimate.)

But the involved women maintain that the stunt was all about promoting awareness for breast cancer. “Donate to breast cancer,” they said in a video posted to Twitter. “Save the boobies. Shagmag for life.”

Series Of Bad Calls Renew Calls For Robot Umpires

In Game 5, home plate umpire Lance Barksdale caught heat for what many observers called an unreliable strike zone. Barksdale was caught on a hot mic blaming Nats catcher Yan Gomes for his bad call on a Tanner Rainey pitch in the sixth inning. Another questionable call went in favor of the Astros’ Cole against Nats outfielder Victor Robles.

“The dawn of the robot umpire is near, and it is time. Game 5 of the World Series exemplified this,” wrote ESPN’s Jeff Passan after the game. “Plate umpire Lance Barksdale actually called a decent game by the current standards for umpires, but the combination of an untimely blown call and a hot-mic video of his rationale behind another poor judgment illustrated why automated balls and strikes must be part of baseball’s future sooner than later.”

Zimmerman didn’t blame Barksdale for the loss: “Lance didn’t lose us the game tonight,” he said after the game. “Gerrit Cole beat us.” But many fans are wondering what would have happened if those calls went a different way.

Double-Fisting Fan ‘Didn’t Feel A Thing’ When Home Run Ball Hit Him

Jeff Adams, a Nats fan who made it to the stadium for Game 5, got hit with a home run ball from Yordan Alvarez of the Astros while he had a beer in each hand.

When FOX 5 caught up with him, Adams said, “It hit me in the chest, but you know what? It was from the other team so I didn’t feel anything.”

Adams then came close to Nats star Juan Soto’s home run later in the game, per FOX 5.

(Adams is lucky. As Deadspin reported, getting hit with a ball can have serious, sometimes deadly, consequences.)

Trump Goes To Game 5, Gets Booed, Predictable Outrage Cycle Ensues

President Donald Trump announced on Thursday that he planned to attend Game 5, should there be one. He wouldn’t be throwing out the first pitch (chef/activist José Andrés would instead do the honors), but he would be marking his first attendance at a D.C. sports event since moving to the White House.

And when Game 5 came around, the team made preparations for the president’s arrival, largely involving security. As pitcher Stephen Strasburg explained in a pregame news conference, “Usually we have these labs that are super friendly sniffing the clubhouse” as part of a security sweep, “Today we had a German shepherd I didn’t feel comfortable petting.”

Trump showed up shortly after the game began, with a large group of Congressional Republicans in tow. (The Lerners, the family who owns the Nationals, requested that he be seated with Major League Baseball officials, WUSA 9 reported.) During the Nats’ regular third inning solute to veterans, the Jumbotron showed Trump and the sold-out stadium quickly went from cheering to loud booing. Many in the crowd began chanting, “Lock him up!”, a nod to the chants he led against presidential opponent Hillary Clinton in 2016.

It wasn’t the only response to Trump’s attendance at the game. Two men with the group Common Defense held a “Veterans For Impeachment” behind home plate during the fifth inning, and other fans unfurled a large “Impeach Trump!” sign from the upper deck.

As might be expected, the booing prompted a mixture of celebration and pearl clutching.

“Enjoy These Deeply Satisfying Clips of Trump Getting Booed at the World Series,” reads a Mother Jones headline. “After years of horrifying footage of people wildly cheering Trump’s deranged rambling at his rallies, it’s reassuring—restorative, even!—to know that the rest of the country hasn’t forgotten how to greet tyrants,” says Slate’s Matthew Dessem.

But the Morning Joe gang was less appreciative of the gesture, calling the booing “sickening,” adding that “We are Americans and we do not do that. We do not want the world hearing us chant ‘Lock him up’ to this president or to any president.”

Chris Coons, the Democratic senator from Delaware, similarly disapproved. “I frankly think the office of the President deserves respect, even when the actions of our President at times don’t,” he told CNN.

As exhausting as this predictable back-and-forth is, it’s better than talking about the Nats’ tragic implosion at home.
