Not at Nationals Park.
The ironic thing is that they ruined a perfectly good public space for kids to play baseball with a piece of public art. The only way to make it more ironic would be for the statues to be standing playing baseball on their hand held games or phones.

It needs a Stay Off the Grass sign.

It’s only about 50 ft. wide, and maybe 60-70 ft. long, accounting for the angle of the north border. If anyone hit baseballs there, they would smash into a lot of the parked or moving cars on Virginia Ave. They could also hit foul balls back into the Fed building unless someone added a metal cage. I doubt the Fed or their friends would let that happen.
[For those who don’t know, it’s Edward J. Kelly Park, directly behind the Federal Reserve building. I thought it was part of the Fed but I think it might be administered by the National Park Service. There are other sculptures in the park. Not a lot of info online. According to the Wall Street Journal, NPS owns the tennis court there, but the Fed administers it. At least they did in 2012.]

Oh, yeah. Those would still be nice and white, I’m sure.

I passed this today and enjoyed the spherical center and mirror.

So where is it?

It is in a grassy area on Virginia Ave NW between 20th and 21st St NW. There is a tennis court nearby for a federal building that used be known as Edward J. Kelly Park.
Also, I just noticed that PotomacCyclist posted this picture in this thread in February 2015. -
