WASHINGTON, D.C. — First pitch of Game 1 between the Dodgers and Nationals is scheduled for 2:38 p.m. Pacific Time, 5:38 p.m. here on the east coast. A hurricane, Hurricane Matthew, is tormenting the south Atlantic. My aunt in Georgia had to evacuate her home. The Bahamas is dealing with widespread flooding.

Here in the nation’s capital, we’re fine. The sky is gray but we’re fine.
