In those 86 years and 8 days, two major league teams left the nation&#8217;s capitol. Another returned after 12,242 days in 2005. The shocked the baseball world starting 50-31, but finished an even .500. Then, the losing began and continued until 2012.<br><br>Four division titles followed by first round exits. This year, after late-inning heroics in the play-in game and Game 5 of the National League Division Series, the Nationals swept the St. Louis Cardinals to win the first NL pennant in D.C. history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Nats came back from a 19-31 start this season, losing only 38 more games along the way. Left for dead, they were six outs away from elimination in the play-in game. They came back and beat the Milwaukee Brewers in the 8th inning a wild swing of maybe 15 minutes long.<br><br>The Los Angeles Dodgers, winners of 106 games, took a 2-1 lead in the NLDS. Backs to the wall, DC won the final two games, including two Game 5 home runs by Anthony Rendon and Juan Soto, onback to back pitches off of Clayton Kershaw. Howie Kendrick&#8217;s grand slam won the first playoff series for Washington since 1924.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The magic continued behind the starting rotation of Max Scherzer, 2009 1st overall pick Stephen Strasburg and free agent acquisition, Patrick Corbin. Game 1 though, Anibal Sanchez shocked the St. Louis Cardinals with 7 &frac23; hitless innings. The Redbirds never recovered &#8211; Scherzer followed it with 6 no-hit innings of his own. Strasburg won DC&#8217;s first home NLCS game. Patrick Corbin, staked a 7-0 lead, struck out 12 in his 15 outs. St. Louis stormed back with 4, but the Nats bullpen, a nightmare for most of the season, held the line. At 11:08 p.m., rookie Victor Robles squeezed his glove on a Tommy Edman popup to center to deliver the pennant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The season has been remarkable. <br><br>Kendrick, the super sub, won the NLCS MVP. Playing more throughout the season after tearing his Achilles tendon last year, he hit .344 at age 36. The &#8220;at this point in my career, I&#8217;m not an every day player&#8221; recovered from a dreadful first four games of the postseason to win the first round and lead the way in the second. He&#8217;s earned a week off.<br><br>The much-maligned Davey Martinez kept the team together. The players did not revolt to his in-game management, his stunts involving camels or smashing cabbages. Seemingly, Martinez recognized that the culture of a team doesn&#8217;t come from the top down, but from the players themselves. Scrap heap acquisitions like Fernando Rodney and his bow and arrow celebration and especially Gerardo Parra&#8217;s &#8220;Baby Shark&#8221; and dancing  lightened up a traditionally tense clubhouse. Martinez deserves credit for realizing his tactics were not working and letting the team find its own culture.<br><br>When October came around, Martinez outmanaged his opposition, especially LA&#8217;s Dave Roberts. Deploying starters from the bullpen, Martinez emphatically managed to the situation, not by numbers. It&#8217;s as if a switch had been turned on, a stunning reversal from the first 200 games of his career. He realized the GM Mike Rizzo had made starters the strength of the team and embraced total utilization.<br><br>Lastly, the face of the franchise, Ryan Zimmerman reaches the Fall Classic 14 years after being the first draft pick since baseball returned. He&#8217;s been along for the ride with us longer than anyone else in uniform. It&#8217;s going to incredible to hear his name introduced on October 25 in Nationals Park.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Washington Nationals have won the National League pennant.
