The WASHINGTON NATIONALS have been sold by MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL to MARYLAND billionaire THEODORE N. LERNER, dashing EMMIS' JEFF SMULYAN in his efforts to buy the franchise, according to numerous reports. LERNER, whose group includes former ATLANTA BRAVES President STAN KASTEN as President, will pay $450 million for the former MONTREAL EXPOS franchise, which moved to RFK STADIUM last season.
