Washington Nationals are betting on big business from sports gambling

You won’t need a ticket to the game to get in on the action once a new sports book opens at Nationals Park.

After an abbreviated season of baseball without fans, and restrictions on the bars and restaurants surrounding the ballpark because of the COVID pandemic, the Nationals are wagering that the BetMGM sports book and app will bring back more paying customers, whenever they’re allowed.

The team’s exclusive deal with BetMGM will allow fans to use a mobile app to wager online within a two-block radius of Nationals Park or place bets with live tellers or machines at what the team promises to be a luxury viewing and sports betting experience with food and beverage service.
