Red Sox, Nats honored to play at Naval Academy

"As a former Marine, it's a privilege and honor to play at the Naval Academy," said Baker, whose father served in World War II and uncle was in the Navy. "I have fished outside there for years and have pictures on my phone when I took my wife and son the last summer. Great afternoon."

It will be an exciting day for both organizations as they get the full experience throughout the day, beginning with a breakfast reception where the managers -- Baker and Red Sox manager John Farrell -- and both teams will be presented with engraved swords while the Nats and Red Sox present engraved bats to Vice Admiral Walter E.
