 WASHINGTON (AP) - The laborious process of making the Washington Nationals available to a wider television audience took a step forward Tuesday with an agreement that will put the team's remaining games on 185,000 cable homes in the area.
The Mid-Atlantic Sports Network, which has the rights to broadcast Nationals and Baltimore Orioles games throughout the region, reached a deal with cable provider RCN, which serves Washington; Falls Church, Va.; southern Montgomery County, Md.; and Gaithersburg, Md.
RCN agreed to televise about 60 games on channel eight, starting with Tuesday night's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. The remaining games will be available on RCN on over-the-air channel WDCA or as national telecasts on ESPN or Fox.
