The Washington Nationals are down 1-0 in the NLDS against the Chicago Cubs. It appears they are a little feisty after the 3-0 loss to the North Siders on Friday night.

According to multiple fan reports, employees from National Park are confiscating "W flags" from Cubs fans at the gate on Saturday.

It's interesting that the flags were allowed on Friday night but after the loss, they are no longer allowed to fly the W flag today. However, they are allowed to check their flags to pick it up later.
