Washington has a entwined history with the sport of baseball. From President William Taft to President Barack Obama, every president since William Taft - exept Jimmy Carter - has thrown at least one ceremonial pitch while in office. A lot of presidents have had a history in the sport of baseball. And some of them could have made a career out of it.
President Warren Harding, for example, owned a baseball team in Ohio. Dwight Eisenhower used to play on a junior baseball team at West Point. Even so, Washington did not have a baseball team for almost 3 decades, from 1971, till when the Nationals came in 2005. George W.
