Bankrupt firm ends Nats deal

Mattress Discounters Corp., of Upper Marlboro, a 140-store bedding retailer, is no longer a sponsor of the Washington Nationals Baseball Club LLC. The sponsorship agreement was ended this week with the bankruptcy court's permission. The agreement provided promotional opportunities at the Nationals' ballpark. The company is closing 35 stores on top of 15 that were shut just before bankruptcy. It listed assets of $16.9 million against $31 million in liabilities, including $16.6 million in secured claims. The Chapter 11 filing on Sept. 10 came less than six years after emerging from a prior bankruptcy reorganization.
