Yeah...I guess MIL doesn't travel well either.

Phillies didn't play that Monday, so couldn't get a direct comparison.

Just to drag this out longer than I should, here is a comparison to the actual games where Philly last played in DC:

July 31: 30,167
Aug 1: 23,777
Aug 2: 28,825

I was clearly talking about Philly fans coming to games in DC because Sack made a joke about it being a "home" game for Philly. You compared a game with MIL in DC to a game with WAS in PHI.
