History
After a 33-year absence, Major League Baseball in Washington was revived with the arrival of the Nationals in 2005. The Nats played their first three seasons at RFK Stadium before moving into Nationals Park, a brand new, state-of-the-art facility in Southeast DC, in 2008.
The team, constructed by Mike Rizzo, president of baseball operations & general manager, built a strong core of young talent, including first-round draft picks Ryan Zimmerman, Stephen Strasburg, Bryce Harper and Anthony Rendon. By 2012, the franchise had secured its first division championship. It was the first time the District had experienced postseason baseball since the 1933 Washington Senators advanced to the World Series.
After securing another division title in 2014, the Nationals continue to pursue a World Series title with new manager Dusty Baker, three-time NL Manager of the Year.
Nationals Park is located in the Capitol Riverfront neighborhood, one of the District's fastest-growing areas. Easily accessible from the Navy Yard-Ballpark Metro stop, the Capitol Riverfront provides many options for before and after the game. Yards Park and Canal Park are both outdoor destinations, and each is within walking distance of the Navy Yard stop.
Nats Park is full of family-friendly promotions: Score free food with a kids Family Fun Pack, run the bases or score autographs on Sundays and savor $1 hot dog games
When it comes to food, the stadium is one-of-a-kind. Enjoy a legendary chili dog from Ben’s Chili Bowl, a Washington institution or watch the game comfortably from the Red Porch Restaurant, a full-service restaurant within the stadium. On the Miller Lite Scoreboard Walk, fans can dine at Shake Shack, Blue Smoke Barbeque, El Verano Taqueria and Box Frites.
Don’t forget to catch the GEICO Presidents Race, which takes place during the fourth inning of every game, featuring oversized likenesses of “George” Washington, "Tom" Jefferson, “Abe” Lincoln, “Teddy” Roosevelt and “Bill” Taft. They are joined by Screech the Eagle, waving the Nationals Curly W flag after victories in an epic display of Natitude.
Nationals Park is also the first major professional stadium to be LEED Silver Certified by the U.S. Green Building Council, using numerous sustainable elements to provide the most environmentally conscious experience.
