Michael Ortman is a Washington Nationals fan now living in Florida. He grew up a Senators fan and attended his first Opening Day in 1970. For the next 50 years, Michael was at every Opening Day. Even after his beloved Senators were relocated to Texas, he found a way to keep the streak alive – spanning three cities, six ballparks, and five different home teams. His half-century streak is chronicled in his book Opening Day: 50-for-50.
Michael and Anna discuss how the streak came to be, what it was like to lose and gain a team 33 years apart, and how the 2019 World Series was the perfect cherry on top of an incredible 50 year story.
