Washington Nationals Rivalries
Now, a look at some of the team’s biggest rivalries.
Battle of the Beltway: Washington Nationals vs. Baltimore Orioles
A natural rivalry due to Baltimore’s proximity to the Nationals’ hometown, this rivalry kicked off when the Nats moved in right next door to the Baltimore Orioles in 2005. Their first meeting was the next year, and they’ve been going at it ever since.
Catch the Battle of the Beltway on:
- April 22 – 24
- May 16 – 18
Washington Nationals vs. Philadelphia Phillies
This rivalry goes way back to the Nationals’ previous incarnation as the Montreal Expos. The 80s and 90s saw the Nats and the Philadelphia Phillies battle it out neck-and-neck for the top of their division, and things only heated up when the Expos relocated not far from Philadelphia in Washington, D.C. to become the Nationals.
You can catch this rivalry:
- March 27 – 30
- April 29 – May 1
- August 22 – 24
