Nationals manager Dave Martinez wears Caps hat during postgame press conference

The Washington Nationals are showing their support to the Capitals before the hockey team’s upcoming playoff run.

After the Nats’ 4-1 win over the Atlanta Braves Tuesday evening, manager Dave Martinez showed off a new piece of headwear during his postgame press conference.

Martinez was joined by Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo wearing a Caps hat, which is progress. During the 2015 Winter Classic, Rizzo wore a Blackhawks jersey to Nats Park to show support to his native Chicago.

The two will match outfielder Adam Eaton with their outward support to the local hockey team. While recovering from a torn ACL during the 2017 season, Eaton wore a Capitals hat as his “rehab hat.”
