Hooray! Comcast and MASN strike a deal to air the Washington Nationals!

[Toddzilla]

Washington Nationals fans in the Baltimore-Washington region will be able to watch the Major League Baseball team's games on Comcast as soon as Sept. 1 after the sports network that carries most of the games settled its bitter 15-month dispute with the cable company.

Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed by Mid-Atlantic Sports Network, the Nationals' home network, or by Comcast Corp., the nation's largest cable company and the dominant provider in the Washington region.

Under the deal, 1.6 million Comcast subscribers in the Baltimore-Washington corridor will be able to view the games starting in September,, while another 600,000 people in more distant parts of Western Maryland, Virginia, Delaware and Pennsylvania will get access to the games over the next two years.

I guess that's good. I have some weird mutt of DTV via my apartment complext, so I really have no choice of what channels I get, but as I recall, Peter Angelos was being a jerkwad with getting Nats games broadcast on Comcast, so this would imply that he's lost on some level....and that's quite ok by me. I hate him.
