Washington Nationals Tickets

The Washington Nationals will soon move to the brand new Nationals Stadium in southeast Washington D.C., slated to open in April, 2008. Owners and players alike are hoping the new stadium with draw in more fans and help MLB fans sit up and take notice of the team, despite their less-than-notable performance since their arrival in the nation’s capital. As the 2008 season gears up, the team is hoping the addition of Lastings Milledge and Tyler Clipp will breathe new life into the team and help them move higher in the League standings.

The Washinton Nationals originated in Montreal, Quebec in 1969 as the Montreal Expos. After lackluster performances in Canada, the team moved to Washington, D.C. in 2005, where they become the Washington Nationals. The Nationals move was the first complete relocation in Major League Baseball since 1972, when the Washington Senators deserted Washington, D.C. to become the Texas Rangers.

Despite the fact that the Nationals are one of only four Major League Baseball teams to never win a league championship and earn the chance to play in the World Series, fans were hoping the team’s move might signify a fresh start and a chance to rebuild the team and increase its fan base. But, the Nationals’ move was hotly contested by Baltimore Orioles owner Peter Angelos, who feared his team, which had been the only Major League Baseball franchise in the Baltimore/Washington region, would take a financial hit if the Nationals began to move in on his fan base. The two teams managed to strike a deal that would protect the Orioles’ finances in 2005 and the Nationals began their run as the D.C. baseball team.

The Washington Nationals’ first game took place on April 4, 2005, at Citizens Ballpark against the Philadelphia Phillies. The Nationals lost the game, 8-4, but, to those watching the game, it was obvious that baseball had arrived in D.C. and it was here to stay! They played their first official home game on April 14 at RFK Stadium against the Arizona Diamondbacks, with President George W. Bush throwing out the ceremonial first pitch.
