HAPPILY, WE Nats have/had Dr. Fauci!

Before tonight's game, they showed a MLB sign that said something to the effect that there would be "no spitting, no tobacco chewing, etc." So, what happens? The first Yankees batter (and the first batter in the whole season) spits and approaches the plate. I guess old habits are hard to break.
