Broadcast outlets

When the Nationals arrived in Washington, D. C., MASN acquired the television rights for almost all Nationals games. However, MASN was not available to most people in the Nationals broadcast area for nearly all of the first 2 seasons in DC. Some of the games were also televised on WDCA, mostly on weekends.

In 2006, MASN continued to televise Nationals games. The number of WDCA telecasts decreased to approximately 30, mostly on Friday nights. MASN's broadcast partner switched from WDCA to WDCW for the 2009 season. WDCW will simulcast 20 Nationals games in 2012, all of which (except for Opening Day and June 16th) are on Sunday afternoons.
