For the second year in a row, the Washington Nationals are lowering ticket prices for home game and have reduced the number of the most pricey seats at Nationals Park.
The majority of fans will not see a change in prices, but the team said season tickets for 2010 will be cheaper for about 2,000 seats at Nationals Park, and all non-premium seats will at least remain the same price as 2009. Another thousand outfield seats will be less expensive under half-season and 22-game plans, and some premium seats will be 50 percent less costly due to the carving out of newly labeled sections behind home plate.

Fans could save $2 per ticket on a half or 22-game plan in the lower right field terrace (sections 222-236) where tickets will be $15 instead of $17.
The former Leftfield Box, Leftfield Reserve and RF Reserved have been combined to form the “Outfield Reserve” section, where tickets can be had for $20 a piece if you buy a full season package. The former Leftfield Box seats were $25 last year.
It’s also now possible to by partial season ticket plans for seats that were once only available on a full-season or single-game basis. Seats in the 1st and 3rd Base Club can now be had for $50 per game for a half-season plan.
In addition, the Nationals have carved out portions of the premium seating areas of the ballpark to create new sections with different pricing.
The new Home Plate Box, which had been part of the Lexus Presidents seats, will offer seats for $150 each for a full season. The seats include one parking pass for every four tickets and access to the PNC Diamond Club. Also, some PNC Diamond seats have been sectioned off to create the Home Plate Reserved section, which will offer seats for $75 per game for the season. Fans who buy tickets in those sections will be paying 50 percent less than if they had bought those same seats last year.
The remaining Lexus Presidents seasons will still be $300 a pop per game.
It’s worth noting that all Upper Outfield Gallery seats will be $10 each per game.
