You cannot imagine how excited Washington, D.C., Nationals fans are about the team making it to the World Series for the first time since 1933, when the capital’s baseball team was called the Senators. Sadly, the Giants beat us then in five games.
The story of how the Nats won the 2019 National League pennant title has the makings of a heartwarming Hollywood movie. Imagine a baseball team that begins the season with a failing record only to come from behind and ace an exciting wild-card game, and battle on to beat the higher-ranked Dodgers and Cardinals.
The Nats consist of old and young players bonded over winning a pennant. The ace veteran, Ryan Zimmerman, age 35, had key hits during the playoffs. Rising star Juan Soto is only 20, and couldn’t legally drink booze during the locker-room celebrations. Soto turns 21 on October 25, so hopefully he will have something to celebrate.

On Wednesday, the Orioles convinced a New York judge not to halt an arbitration with the Washington Nationals over payouts from Masn, a regional sports television network that televises the games of both clubs.
The Orioles have a majority ownership stake and complete management control over Masn, while the Nationals have only a minority stake. For years, Masn got to broadcast Nationals baseball games at a substantial discount. It was the price that ...

What's the greatest rivalry in professional baseball? Some might say the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox. Others may be partial to the St. Louis Cardinals and the Chicago Cubs. For lawyers, however, the answer has got to be the Baltimore Orioles and the Washington Nationals, who again find themselves fighting in New York court after one team stopped making payouts for telecasts to the other.
The two clubs have been in court and in arbitration with each other for years — nearly since the Nationals were relocated from Montreal in 2005. After Orioles owner Peter Angelos ...
