GDT: The Washington Nationals are the 2019 World Series Champions!

[kihei]

Seven home losses. Seems impossible.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Scrappy as *** wire to wire.

Came back on the Brewers in the Wild Card game, stunned the Dodgers on a Howie Kendrick grand slam, and then somehow won 4 road games against the team with the best home record in baseball when the chips were down.

Probably one of the more impressive postseason runs in recent memory tbh. Hell of an effort.

 

[Jaguar God]

Any long-time Expos fans on here?

Me, but I couldn't give two forking shirtballs about the Nationals.

Ryan Zimmerman after 15 years with Nats celebrating a championship

Congrats to Zimmerman. Man I think he's been with the team the entire time. He's like the Ovechkin of that team and I'm happy for him.

The series isn't truly over until Davey Martinez gets his hands on Sam Holbrook.

 

[SJSharksfan39]

With that being said, the Redskins are due for a Super Bowl run.

With the way they are playing, it probably won't happen in my lifetime, and I'm 35

 

[JWK]

Great f***ing series

 

[GKJ]

Many congratulations to the Nationals and their fans and any Expos fans who chose to stick with them, which probably isn’t many.

Lets not get carried away now.

Imagine how Tigers fans are feeling. Verlander, Scherzer, A. Sanchez, Price and Porcello all won rings.

None with the Tigers.

 

[BSHH]

The Tigers 2014 postseason rotation has finally won it all - albeit in different uniforms. The Nationals practiced the comeback during the full year and executed it very well today.

Not happening anytime soon!

Between Scherzer and Soto..... I demand co-MVPs!

Any long-time Expos fans on here?

Me. I feel sick.

Eh all good, they won the chip in 87 and 91.

Amazing run, amazing series, amazing game. Got to love seeing some of these long time Nats get it done.

You guys know I was just kidding about signing in Philly, right?

 

[Halladay]

What a weird series.

None with the Tigers.

Good thing Miguel Cabrera won his ring with the 2003 Marlins..

 

[guinness]

What a weird series.

It would've sucked to be the fan of the home team.

And as a Tigers fan, I'm happy for all the former Tigers that won in 2017, 2018, and 2019, but man, JV doesn't do well in the WS.

 

[SJSharksfan39]

Is it just me or did this decade produce a lot of first time championship teams. You had the Giants, Cubs, Astros, and now Nationals. That's quite impressive and does show parity is there (Maybe hidden in plain sight) in baseball.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Realllly good timing by the Nationals too given Zimmerman, Rendon and Strasburg are all FAs.

I imagine at least one of those guys are back (Rendon probably) but at the very least they got something to show for it if their window closes over the winter.

 

[BSHH]

Imagine how Tigers fans are feeling. Verlander, Scherzer, A. Sanchez, Price and Porcello all won rings.

None with the Tigers.

At least for me, it feels pretty, pretty good (since JV already had his "missing" ring). Scherzer was elite all the time and Sanchez made an impressive turnaround after leaving Detroit.
