Nationals ban spectator who displayed white nationalist banner - ESPN

WASHINGTON — The Nationals identified at least one person who will be banned from the ballpark after a banner promoting a white nationalist website was unfurled in the crowd during Sunday's game.

A team spokesperson also said the Nationals are coordinating with District of Columbia police on an investigation.

In addition to the website, the banner also included a call to «SAVE AMERICA» and «DEPORT 100+ MILLION» before it was quickly taken down.

«The Washington Nationals vehemently condemn discriminatory and hateful rhetoric, and we strive to make our home field a safe space for our fans,» the team said in a statement.

The team's policy on banners and signs mostly requires that they be related to baseball, with some allowances for messages about the broadcasting entity or birthdays, anniversaries and «similar family-friendly greetings.»
