"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Nationals announced a \u201CTake Back the Park\u201D campaign designed to keep droves of Phillies fans from taking over the stadium when Washington hosts Philadelphia this season, according to the Washington Post.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u201CFrankly, I was tired of seeing it,\u201D Nationals COO Andy Feffer told the Washington Post. \u201CForget you, Philly. This is our park, this is our town, these are our fans, and it\u2019s our time right now.\u201D&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u201CWe\u2019ve heard it enough, we\u2019ve seen it enough, and I don\u2019t like it any more than anyone else,\u201D Feffer said. \u201CWe\u2019re trying to build a team here, and nothing irks me personally or the people here more than to see another team\u2019s fans \u2014 particularly Philly fans \u2014 in our ballpark, holding up signs. That\u2019s not the way it should be. And I think we\u2019ve got an opportunity here to do something different.\u201D&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To do this, the Nationals are opening the sale of tickets for their May 4 series against the Phillies early to those who currently hold Nationals season ticket plans, or to those who live in Washington D.C., Maryland, or Virginia.\nIn years past, Phillies fans have organized bus trips down to Washington to \u201Ctakeover\u201D Nationals Park when the two teams played. The Nationals, who traditionally have had low attendance since their arrival in Washington, have previously been unable to avoid this phenomenon.&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
