From Wiki On September 29, 2004, MLB officially announced that the Expos franchise would move to Washington, D.C. for 2005. Later that night, the Expos played what would be their last game in Montreal, a loss to the Florida Marlins before more than 31,000 fans. The move was approved by the owners of the other teams in a 28–1 vote on December 3 (Baltimore Orioles owner Peter Angelos cast the sole "nay" vote, dissenting the franchise's relocation and intrusion into the Baltimore/D.C. market). On November 15, 2004, arbitrators struck down a lawsuit by the former team owners against MLB and former majority owner Jeffrey Loria, ending the legal fight to keep the Expos in Montreal.

The real reason that the eXPOS MOVED TO washington D.C. it's all because they're making a lot less in TV games and ticket sales than all of the other baseball teams. The Expos were in last place with 5% of ticket sales, the Yankees were at a huge 174% more and that's why the Expos are now knowed as the Washington Nationals!
