Take Us Out to the Ball Game: Cheney Pitches, Wonkette Catches

Yesterday we reported on the Nationals’ home opener, where Dick Cheney showed up to throw out the first pitch — and got roundly booed.

We weren’t there to see it, chained as we are to our laptops. Gawker Media is a cruel mistress — at least Jill Carroll got bathroom breaks. But Intern Nick was at the game, and he took a few photos, which we now present as an update to our prior coverage.

Here is Nick’s personal favorite, “of a ‘Washington-type-A’ on his effin Treo during the game”:

Our first instinct is to mock this guy for Treoing during a baseball game. But then again, it wasn’t much of a game. The subhed for the Post write-up says it all: “Offense Listless, Crowd Lethargic, Defeat Sluggish: Mets 7, Nationals 1.”

(Also, the Original Wonkette is hopelessly addicted to her Treo. And if we were cool enough to have them, we might be too.)

Additonal photos from yesterday’s game appear after the jump.
