The Washington Nationals (nicknamed The Nats) are a Major League Baseball (MLB) franchise based in Washington, D.C. Prior to the 2005 season, the current Nationals team played in Montreal as the Montreal Expos. The team's relocation was the first in Major League Baseball since 1972, when the Washington Senators moved to the Dallas/Fort Worth area, becoming the Texas Rangers. The franchise became Washington's first in the National League (both previous Nationals/Senators teams played in the American League) since 1899, and was owned by Major League Baseball from 2002 (in Montreal) until mid-2006. On May 3, 2006, a new ownership group was selected, headed by Theodore N. Lerner. The group formally took possession of the team on July 22, 2006. Former longtime Atlanta Braves sports executive Stan Kasten is President of the team.
The Nationals are a member of the National League's Eastern Division, and they currently play at Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium, which 30+ years ago was the ballpark for the second Senators team. The team is expected to move into a new ballpark, located in Southeast D.C. near the Anacostia River and with views of the Capitol building, in the Spring of 2008
