About the Washington Nationals

The Washington Nationals franchise was founded in 1969, in Canada, as the Montreal Expos. The franchise left Montreal after 23-years with zero playoff action and fan attendance below 10,000 per game. The team moved to Washington, D.C. in 2005 and was reborn as the Nationals, bringing baseball back to Washington after a 33-year absence. The Washington Nationals franchise has won 6 division titles, 1 National League Pennant, and appeared in 1 World Series game, bringing home that Championship trophy. The Nationals biggest divisional rivals are the Philadelphia Phillies, a rivalry that started back when the team was still the Expos.

Washington Nationals FAQs:

Where do the Washington Nationals play?

The Washington Nationals play at Nationals Park, which was built by the Anacostia River in Washington, D.C., and opened in 2008 with a seating capacity of 41,373. The park has good highway access and is just 2 blocks from the subway. Building a new ballpark was part of the agreement when the Montreal Expos moved to D.C. The exterior has been criticized as lacking distinction by some, while others appreciate its understated design. Nationals Park has a modern look, created in concrete, glass and steel. It’s not flashy and that was the point. It was meant to be compatible with the other buildings in the neighborhood, and not pull any attention away from the important buildings in the nation’s capital. Inside, fans enjoy comfortable seating with actual legroom and wonderful sight lines to the field. A new 4,780-square foot main LED scoreboard was added in 2024. Nationals Park is very fan-friendly with multiple social gathering spaces, open concourses and amazing food options from crab cakes to arepas, bao buns, and the half-smoke, a D.C staple. Watch for The Racing Presidents at the bottom of the fourth inning. If you’re bringing kids, take them to the Strike Zone and turn them loose on the games. Beyond the fan amenities, Nationals Park is a sustainable, green design star. The park received LEED Silver Certification for its many sustainable design elements, use of recycled material in construction, energy efficient lighting, water conservation and more. A 6,300-square-foot green roof in left field minimizes heat within the park. There are 14 cherry trees in the center field plaza symbolic of Washington, a city filled with Japanese Sakura cherry trees that originated as a gift of friendship from Japan to the United States, in 1913. A foghorn sounds for every Nationals home run in reference to the ballpark’s Navy Yard location. City planners had hoped that Nationals Park would serve as a catalyst to help revitalize and redevelop the neighborhood, and it worked! Today there are bars, restaurants, hotels, and office buildings in a booming waterfront neighborhood around the ballpark.

Washington Nationals Fan Life

Washington Nationals fans show up in a sea of red to cheer for their team, rain or shine, and Washington D.C. gets a lot of rain in the opening months of the MLB season! This is a city that still feels the buzz from its first World Series win in 2019 and they are ready for the Nats to go all the way again soon. There’s a lot of excitement around the rookie superstars beginning to emerge on the team. Older Nationals fans remember losing Washington baseball teams twice. The Nationals-Senators franchise moved and became the Minnesota Twins in 1961, and the Washington Senators expansion team left to become the Texas Rangers in 1972. The Washington Nationals are the third MLB team to call Washington D.C. home, ending a 33-year professional baseball drought in the city. The Nationals quickly became part of the city’s identity and something that helps unify people in a city where political rifts are common. Nats fans are known for being polite and friendly. Catching a baseball game at Nationals Field is a really enjoyable experience, with a happy energy in the park that’s a lot of fun.

Fun fact about the Washington Nationals...

The Washington Nationals have one of the best mascot races since Milwaukee’s Famous Racing Sausages were born (who they drew inspiration from). The Racing Presidents have been causing commotion and thrilling fans since July 2006. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Teddy Roosevelt hit the warning track at the bottom of the fourth inning in every game, rain or shine. Presidents Taft, Coolidge, and Hoover have made appearances as “visiting presidents” over the years but are now officially retired. When Teddy Roosevelt went on a 525 race losing streak fans mounted a “Let Teddy Win!” campaign and Teddy responded with some wild antics. Fans can book the Racing Presidents for event appearances, and even download coloring pages of each President, for the kids.
