Despite the odds, the Nats never lost hope.
The @Nationals had LESS than a 0.1% chance to win the #WorldSeries on May 28th.
Now, they’re raising the trophy. #CHAMPS pic.twitter.com/Sd4F6TK81y

The Nationals were 19-31 through 50 games and now they’re World Series champs.
That’s the worst 50-game start for ANY World Series champion.
That, and more, on the Nats’ clutch comebacks all year & into October, from @AndrewSimonMLB, @mattkellyMLB & I.https://t.co/ocmo95Y3tz— Sarah Langs (@SlangsOnSports) October 31, 2019
They caught on FIRE at the perfect time.
The Nationals defeat the Astros 6-2 in Game 7 to win their 1st World Series in franchise history.
Washington was 10-0 in games started by Max Scherzer & Stephen Strasburg during the playoffs, the best team record in games started by any duo in a single postseason in MLB history. pic.twitter.com/Bmja8c422q— ESPN Stats & Info (@ESPNStatsInfo) October 31, 2019
Rendon & Kendrick came in the clutch when they needed them the most.
Anthony Rendon has now homered in each of the last 3 games in which the @Nationals were facing elimination.
He’s the first player ever to homer in 3 straight elimination games in a single postseason.#STAYINTHEFIGHT
