An "Impeach Trump" banner was hung at the Washington Nationals opening day game in D.C. by protesters, the Washington Post reports.

The huge sign also had the word "Resist" written on it and was unveiled at the end of the game as most of the crowd of 42,744 were leaving the stadium. It was hung off the banner from the observation deck off the first base side of the field.

The Nationals were playing the Florida Marlins at Nationals Park and last week had extended an invite to President Donald Trump to throw out the ceremonial first pitch, but he declined because of a conflict.

The incident was the second one involving Trump protestors as the Trump National Golf Club in Virginia was vandalized over the weekend, with the word "resist" spray-painted on a fairway.
