The new franchise was part of the American League’s first expansion, an effort that also saw the introduction of the Los Angeles Angels. The Senators finished 61-100 in their inaugural effort, and would have only one winning season before relocating to Arlington, Texas in 1972 to become the Rangers. America’s Capital was bereft of a MLB franchise until 2005, when the Montreal Expos relocated to the city to become the Washington Nationals.
