As tweeted by @NationalsPR, which is “the official Twitter page of the Washington Nationals Baseball Media Relations Department,” during last night’s Nats-Pirates game at PNC Park (via D.C. Sports Bog):
Now, PNC Park is a beautiful ballpark, and I don’t find Pittsburgh itself to be particularly ugly, but really? You’re the PR arm of the Nationals and you’re hailing Pittsburgh as “America’s most beautiful city”? Seems “off-message,” which is a thing PR people say.
We tweeted this from @MrIrrelevantDC and are having some fun with it over there, but it seems right for the website too, so kick it around a little. Can’t wait to see what the Nats tweet when visiting Philly.

There is probably a member of the Western Pennsylvania diaspora in the Nationals PR office. That would explain so much.

That ballpark is incredible, but no chance Pittsburgh is the country’s most beautiful city.
For me, it’s San Fran in a runaway.

The view is pretty awewome. The polar opposite is Yankee Stadium. The view of the run down Bronx buildings over the outview wall is hideous.
