The plight of the D.C. sports fan was well documented Thursday night. Not only did the Washington Nationals playoff hopes end after falling short of a comeback against the Dodgers in Game 5 of the NLDS, but WMATA shut the Metro down before the game even ended.

The Nationals’ playoff run ended in devastating fashion, falling 4-3 to the Dodgers after Washington managed to make it a one-run game in the seventh inning.
