For thirty-six seasons, professional baseball in Montreal produced unforgettable summers, homegrown stars, packed crowds, heartbreak, and one of sport's most compelling unfinished stories.
From Canada's first major-league franchise at Jarry Park to the vast Olympic Stadium, Montreal built a unique baseball identity. Gary Carter, Andre Dawson, Tim Raines, Steve Rogers, Larry Walker, Pedro Mart璯ez, Vladimir Guerrero, and many others made the club one of the game's most talented.
The Expos came close to greatness. There was the 1981 postseason run ending in "Blue Monday." There was the remarkable 1994 team, best in baseball before a strike ended the season and erased a potential title chase. Financial strain, declining attendance, ownership issues, and a long-promised but never-built downtown stadium followed.
As Montreal's future faded, Washington pursued the return of baseball it had lost in 1971. Major League Baseball's purchase of the franchise brought both histories together. One city said goodbye under the Olympic Stadium roof; the other welcomed baseball back at RFK Stadium and began building a new home along the Anacostia River.
From Montreal to Washington tells the full story of that transformation-from expansion in 1969, through its greatest eras, the interrupted 1994 season, relocation, and Washington's rebirth, to the opening of Nationals Park and the establishment of a lasting franchise.
It is the story of what was lost, what endured, and how one team came to define both a Canadian farewell and an American rebirth.
