Coming off their 2019 WNBA Championship, the Washington Mystics were front and center in the rally around the Nat – with star player Delle Donne throwing out the first pitch in the final game of the NLCS.

Meanwhile, buoyed by their first win of the season, the Washington Redskins – along with legendary quarterback Joe Theismann – quickly joined in the cheers.

D.C. native and Olympic gold medalist Katie Ledecky has been on-hand to cheer on the Nationals.

The Washington Capitals aren’t far removed from their own first championship, and they also offered their support.

The Washington Wizards’ John Wall was on hand to watch the Nationals seal their first NLCS.

And the Wizards themselves also joined in to praise the team.
