Locked it up ! Locked it up !

Congratulations to the Washington Nationals & their fans. cheers

At one point in the 2019 season, the Nationals' records was 19 wins & 31 losses.
There was much talk about the manager being fired then.
Yet, tonight the Nationals won the World Series 7th & deciding final game with the score of 6 to 2,
winning the championship.

It's the first time the Expos/Nationals franchise has EVER won the World Series.
It was also the first time the visiting teams won all 7 games, something that never happened in
MLB, nor NBA.

The Nationals Juan Soto was the youngest player to hit 3 home runs in a World Series
and the only player to hit one at age 20 and one at age 21 in the same World Series
(He had a birthday during the series).

Except for the terrible umpiring regarding the inconsistent strike zone, it was a terrific series complete with some excellent defensive plays. thumbs up

Well, the Astros are still a very good team. Verlander & Grienke aren't getting younger though. Nonetheless, if they re-sign Cole, they will still be tough to beat next year. Rendon is also a free agent now. Thus, if they don't re-sign him, they are unlikely to repeat. However, one has to respect their improbable run this year, barely making the wild card position, especially after losing Harper to free agency this year. Then, beating the Dodgers, Cardinals and Astros to win it all. Impressive. They simply got hot, when it counted most, at the end of the season.
