Their name was taken from the previous Washington baseball franchise, Washington Senators. In fact, the team’s nickname, ‘the Nats’ is also the same shortened version used by old teams in D.C.

The team’s home ballpark, Nationals Park is located in Washington’s Navy Yard neighborhood along the Anacostia River. It has gained recognition as the United States’ first major stadium for professional sports to be certified green by LEED. Its record attendance of over forty-five thousand, nine hundred was set in 2012 when the Washington Nationals played against the St. Louis Cardinals.
