I'm so happy for Ryan Zimmerman,the first ever nationals draft pick, endure so many highs and lows with the team, unlike others,he still stay with the team with loyalty, right now as a champion,what a story for the Mr. Washington
Unlike oThErS
@@streaksfn4386 cough cough Bryce Harper cough cough
I have forgetten he was their "first pick". Good thing for another old vet that stuck it out like Ovekhin for the Caps
The definitive Franchise Player
Ryan is SOLID GOLD, as a MAN as well as a Nat!
Nationals: “So you’re telling me there’s a chance” 🤓
Yes sir that’s right
There is a chance.
Yez🤓☝️
Thank God they won this world series accidentally at the start of a rebuild and had NO IDEA of the caliber roster they built. And now my phillies have both Bryce Harper and Trae Turner. In the playoffs this year, Harper has 5 HRs on a .319 avg and Turner has 11 game post season hitting streak with 3 HRs , a team high 17 hits on a CRAZY .459 batting average and .512 on base percentage. 🔥🔥🔥 i can definitely watch these guys on this phillies team for another 5 years. BTW they are 5 wins away from a world series ring as Philadelphia Phillies.!! Thanks nationals !! 😊
Jim Carery! ( not to be confused with the goaltender who gave us a chance before our first Stanley Cup appearance in the 1990s)
Dodger fan here, glad these guys won. Well deserved, what a lovable team!! All MLB teams should take notes....
mrjc12
Roberts should take notes!!
Much respect to Dodgers and Cardinals fan, staying true to the National league, !
You guys should try to sign Cole, and get rid of Kershaw
Agree
Looks like Kershaw and Roberts learned their lessons in order to win their first title in 32 years.
The Nationals have proved the critics wrong. Congratulations to them of winning the World Series.
Daniel Bazalar Now, they can rub it in ‼️🔥
@@zcorpalpha2462 especially to Bryce
TM_Software I’m a huge Atlanta Braves fan. I want them to trade Freeman, so we can get a decent starting pitcher ⚾️
@@zcorpalpha2462 Really?? Tell you what the Yankees will give you J.A Happ for Freeman.
Since they beat the 2 best 1st seed teams Dodgers and cardinals and no. 2 Astros
I truly believe that the Nationals are one of the best underdog teams in MLB history
Agreed
Definitely
Andrew Shemon easily
in any pro sports team. (not just MLB)
Maybe THE best. I've never seen anything like this.
beating two hundred win teams on the way... sweeping the cardinals..well deserved.. that Houston offense is a juggernaut and they kept them tame
A big part of their success is just being really good at learning how to read tipped pitches and stealing catcher signs
Luke Mendelsohn, keep crying. 😭😢
The Luke Mendelsohn salt mine is officially open for business, folks!!
💯 GOD IS GOOD
Games 3 4 5 proves you wrong. They got lucky that Hinch made the horrible decision to switch pitchers and basically handled the win to them.
That’s why I love baseball. A team can have a 0.1 percent chance of winning the World Series at some point in the season and they end up winning it....
What a sport.
Emperor Palpatine a team in soccer had like a 0.0001 chance at premier league and won it all
That’s like every sport bro.
Imagine making that bet at the beginning of the season. Somebody made a lot of money.
Bunch of fat white guys and Mexicans just swinging a bat. Takes no skill basically golf. Only thing that makes it a sport is fielding and running
I Feel Like Yeezus It takes far more skill than any other sport. Do you understand how hard it is to hit something that tiny coming at 98 miles per hour? You’re a fool.
St Louis Blues: last place in January. Cup champions in June.
Washington Nationals: Written off in June. World Series champs in October.
This is why sports is awesome.
Miami Dolphins Super Bowl Champions 2020!
Avi Scheinberg Dolphins might be pushing it 😅
why not both?
Avi Scheinberg sorry but that’s like the redskins winning the super bowl too 💀
Wow a bottom team won the championship, you guys act like this happens every year, sports are literally the same teams winning over and over for the most part
“If you walked out of this park. You! Blew it!” 😂
I wonder if Charlie Slowes knew about UrinatingTree and his "blew it" memes?
Never walk out of a game early I always say
EpiCz Izzy Snow I stayed th whole game
i stayed but was debating to leave
Won all their games in Houston. I still can’t believe that lol. Astros were the best team at home and they couldn’t get 1 win at home. Nationals deserve this chip and the fact they never gave up and kept coming back. They were destined to win. What a story. Congrats Washington ! I was rooting for you .
"What will the Nationals be without Bryce Harper?" Champions.
World Series Winners - NATIONAL BASEBAL CHAMPIONS! 💖
Lilly Rose AND against cheaters too

new York Yankees
Period.
2019: Blues, Raptors, Nationals, year of surprise champions
Ehhhh the raptors weren't that much of a surprise.
@@claytonstone2825 KD and klay got injured, if not for that they wouldn't have won. Of course it was a surprise.
What if this is the year that pro sports are no longer fixed?
NHL, NBA & MLB Winners this year was the team's 1st Championship unbelievable
True, NATIONALS and Raptors, first time in their history, not sure about the Blues
I’m a Yankee fan and I thought the Astros were gonna destroy them. Boy was I wrong. Good for these nats
Astros can destroy most teams or get destroyed themselves. 60-some runners LOB all World Series. No one could deliver for them in a pinch. They had the pitching same as the Nationals, it’s just the Nats had the edge and confidence and conviction to win.
They said Cards would destroy them also 😂
You are an idiot for thinking that
Heather Vinson can you use grammar?
As a yankees fan they deserve it so
"Never tell me the odds"

@@pablosalazarcomposer Juan Soto as Juan Solo needs to be a tshirt...if it isn't already.
Get it done and I will buy one for sure
Calling it now we are going to get a movie based off of this in 50 years
Jacob Flowers moneyball style
Call it *No Odds Nats : Baseball's Underdog Story*
Hopefully sooner !!!
Jacob Flowers if there isn’t a cubs movie their won’t be a nats movie
MarloSoBalJr I like it
Why is this not an ESPN 30 for 30 yet?! So many individual storylines here that came together perfectly.
From last to first within months: Washington Nationals and St. Louis Blues 2019
Arlan T. And your 2019 Miami Dolphins :)
Arlan T. They weren’t first
@@zacharyschiefelbein4956 the Dolphins aren't gonna win a game
@@hvinsonj i think the guy meant first as in "won the ws"
Regardless if were last or not they still had only a 0.1 percent to make the World Series
I’m soo happy for the nats
I’m a Yankees fan
So I’m happy they won after a while
Thanks very much!!
No subs with No vids I’m also a Yankees fan and I almost always root for the AL team(Red Sox excluded) and I just couldn’t with the Astros. I’m so glad the Nats won.
Same Same And you’re happy we demolish the cheaters for you guys
Even though I’m a Dodger fan, when the Nats won I was happy for them as if they were my team. So well deserved, it’s nice to see a team not choke 😂
And NOT CHEAT, either!
;-)
That was a great World Series match up. For the first time in MLB history not a single home game was won by the home team. It was simply amazing.
That was crazy
as a cubs fan, i was rooting for washington from the beginning of the playoffs, and they didn’t disappoint with milwaukee, la, and st. louis let alone houston
David Ross next year as manager. I'm loving it!!!
Avacado and Greens yesss bringing back the 2016 vibes, i’m trying to see our dugout like the nationals’, kendrick and rendon and parra all having fun playing great ball
Walgreens for the win
violinprodigy 2.0 I think the nats has it before Walgreens, like the senators used the same logo
@@nickvoivoda4327 That's right. Virtually identical to the curly W sported by the expansion Senators.
W
Whats wrong with i????
OLD Senators had same logo
W was on 1901 to 1960 GriffithnStadium Senators Whrn grass was green.
Dustin Stoner funny I never realized that till you just mentioned it. Still happy for them❤️
Anthony Rendon single handidly saved Major league baseball with one swing of the bat!!
You are correct.....
also that kendrick homer in game 7 upped their odds of winning by like 20 and they were still down 2
Which one?
Forget what I said about which one, i thought you said Kendrick
A sincerest thank you from this Cubs fan for knocking out the Brewers and sweeping the Cards!!! Well earned NATS!!
I hear ya! Grew up near Wrigley Field!!! Go cubbies!!!! Congrats gnats!!!!
People say baseball is a boring sport and some even say it’s not a sport. Let them say that, they don’t understand a game of intellect with major focus on team work. One weak link, one error, can be the difference between a win or a loss. This is why I love baseball better than any other sport. 0.1% chance of winning to actually winning the World Series. Wow.
Toughest thing in sports to hit a pitch!
this is the greatest run in mlb history
Definitely No Doubt
One of the best world series stories in baseball history. Period.
Achilleskneel I think it is, mostly everyone came in thinking the Astros had already bagged the win and I’ve never seen a World Series where both teams won all the away games
@Achilleskneel not only that it was the first championship series in sports ever to only have only road wins
I agree, 19 -31 in baseball? That's like being 1- 7 in football and running the table just to be in the wildcard round, the NATIONALS were done, they kept fighting ,they could have easily gave up, they had a ton of injuries, they won the wild card against the best closer in baseball Milwaukee, beat 2 teams with over 100 wins, who were rated to be the best in their respected divisions. Win 5 elimination games, never been done before, hey gotta tip your hat, top 3 stories in my opinion.
They were supposed to be swept by the Astros, no one gave them a shot, great story!
Respect Chicago series but the whole world was rooting for the Cubs, let's face it, they were the lovable losers ironically just like the NATIONALS so people were pulling for the Cubs, it was a great series too, but don't short change the Nats
From A Dodgers Fan Congratulations Washington 🏆!!! Thank You For Beating Houston amakes it 100x better
If there was ever a team that deserves this. The Nationals are it. They worked hard to get there and won. That's the sign of a championship team. Well done Nationals !!!
NOBODY thought they would be Champions but I had FAITH in them. To win it against the Houston Astros was the BEST!!!! I don’t like them because they are a bunch of arrogant men who think that they are unbeatable and they “knew” they were going to win but in baseball you can never “know” something because things change in the blink of an eye. So there you go Houston, pack up and go your separate ways. WASHINGTON NATIONALS, YOU ENJOY YOUR PARADE AND ALL THAT COMES WITH BEING WORLD CHAMPS!!!! Congratulations to all of you and may God bless you over this winter and all of your days! Nice going, I LOVED IT!!!!⚾️👏🏻❤️🏆🦈
To "A-line from the nineties braves documentary the moment you think you've got it this game will humble you quickly
I hope Bryce Harper stopped counting his money long enough to give some props to his former team mates....LOL
Bryce who?
You wish you had Bryce Harper type money
@@marcelparizal838 do you understand context ? Or do I have to explain it ? I'm guessing I have to explain. It's not about being jealous of Harper's money, it's that he could have had a ring too, but he choose to take more money than stay with Washington.
@@miamidolphinsfan which honestly I would've done what Harper did as well.
Kevin Clements old news New year new era we don’t care
Capitals first title 2018 Nationals first title 2019 What a time for washington
Rain Happy wizards next?
@@allynfps LOL, Nah, I wish though, but Nah I think the redskins have a better chance then the wizards
Xarity Allyn They Mystics won the women’s basketball championship this year for DC
nSayneTV if we would just get some really good post man for wall to feed we’d do good
I'm so happy for the Nats. This 2019 season will go down in history as one of the most remarkable baseball comeback stories ever. So glad I was alive to see it.
On of the most emotive world series of all time, everything is possible when you work hard, and believe in yourself, they prove it, congratulations to the Nationals !!!!
I can’t believe I’ve gotten to live through probably the two most electrifying and entertaining World Series in mlb history in my lifetime. Cubs and Indians in 2016. Nats and Astros in 2019
1:09 "The Nationals have hit, back to back. to back to back homeruns" EPIC
@win2008workstation Damn right
@win2008workstation and what's even crazier, is that wasn't the first time the Nats have done that.
As a dodgers fan idc the nats avenged us for our 2017 loss and I dedicated all my time to watching every worlds series game I love both teams
Now that’s a real championship title run that’s my team !
I’m a Cubs fan but I’m not going to lie. I enjoyed watching the Nationals. I’m so happy for them and their fans. ♥️⚾️
2002 Angels, 2011 Cardinals, and now the 2019 Nationals.
97Senator that’s awesome! 👏🏼
Go cubbies!!! Grew up near wrig Field!!!
Have been an Expo/Nats fan since 1972 and thought I would never see a championship in my lifetime...Thank you for making this video..something I will never forget ..
It will be talked about it forever!! Go Nats!!
Don"t let anyone tell you what your odds are.
you make your own path to glory
This gave me chills. Man, baseball is an amazing sport. There's nothing like it
This just never gets old. The greatest comeback. Magical season. Thank you Nats for bringing the World Series trophy home to DC.
Ditto. It just is fun to go back and remember how it all went. I think most Nats fans can tell you they knew exactly where they were when they won! ^^
Im a yankees fan, and i was rooting for the nats! I love the underdogs and they brought it!!
I still love the astros there was a bandwagon in my Houston neighborhood on Halloween. It's sad you can't love a team after mistakes.
A memorable season for the nationals. From being one fo the worst teams in the beginning of the season to world champs. Baseball is amazing
The toughest road to the world series defeating the top 2 teams of the NL Central, defeated the #1 seeded Dodgers, and defeated arguably the best astros team in history on the road. Still amazing baseball!
what a season 4 this team.what a playoffs. damn
I will watch this video 100x over before this year ends. What a magical year for a team that Stayed In The Fight All Year!!!
Bryce Harper: signs with Phillies
Nationals after winning WS: who’s the joke now???
Congratulations to the Nationals and their fans! You wanted it and you earned it, no denying it! This is your year, ENJOY! 🙋♀️ An old and long time ASTROS FAN. ❤ ⚾️
welcome nationals to my top three fav World Series ever! 3.2011 2.2019 1.2016
A’S fan and giants fan here congrats
Those are my favorite teams One American League team and one National League team
May God Continue to bless the Nats!
Juan Soto and Victor Robles prayed before games together.And Anthony Rendon is quoted that The Word comes before Anything.You can see Tony Two Bags is devout.Nats have s team chaplain and he prays with team players. I always felt This team was destined to win it all for Gods Glory.Faith moves mountains. I think you will agree.So many unbelievable things happened All year. I believe no coincidences.
A storybook run for the ages. Congratulations from a fan since '05. To my late father who loved baseball but never got to see them play 😢⚾🏆...
I don't think the ramifications of what happened last month have fully sunk in yet. That was one of the biggest upsets in baseball history.
Me either man. I don't even watch baseball much and I'll only check out the Nats in the postseason. But this has got me watching their regular season highlights on youtube. I'll prob check them out during the reg season next year too. They need to make the right re-signings and keep the right people.
@ASTROS fan Winning four games in Houston is lucky?
Hahahahaha
This is exactly why you have got to love MLB postseason. Everyone has equal chance. On there day anyone can knockout anyone else. In NBA its almost a forgone conclusion that the top 3 team in the league would almost always win the finals.
I remember reading the baseball standings on May 23rd of this year and seeing the Nationals 4th in the NL East at 19-31. I thought 'Man the Nats playing terrible so far' meanwhile Bryce Harper & the Phils actually were leading the division, & at that point I bet a lot of us thought that was how the NL East would be decided. Little did anyone know....how the Nationals would gradually turn their season around, gradually move all the way up to grab the lead in the wildcard race, & yet even folks like me still kinda had doubts about the Nats considering they didn't exactly have a winning pedigree in the postseason. All those years when the Nats were the favorites only to fall flat in October. But THIS year....they entered comfortably as 'underdogs'( although they finished the reg. season on an 8-game winning streak, perhaps that should've been a sign that things would be different this time. ), rallied to beat the Brewers in the WC game, upset the Dodgers in the NLDS, swept past the Cardinals, & finally went the distance vs the powerful Astros & took all 4 games down at Minute Maid Park & won the Series in 7 games. Amazing run! And a lot of the older guys on the team that had come over from other organizations, or were cast aside elsewhere, they all came together and brought home a title back to D.C. Yeah, just like Bryce Harper said would happen, right folks? ;-) Anyways, Congratulations to the World Series champion Washington Nationals!! Just goes to show once again that anything really CAN happen in sports, no matter how much some folks( myself included )might not always think it can be possible.
This game me chills
The most unlikely championship run in my lifetime. Congrats to the Nats.
Lester city in the world of futbol was pretty crazy. Chances were SLIIIM
One of the Greatest Miracle Run in Major League History!! Still miss this heavenly moment!!
0.1%Chance to Champion....Amazing..
Rendon is a great player to watch. So talented and such a cool customer.
Anthony Rendon follows The Word ofGod First like other Nats have said to reporters about their Faith.
Started from the bottom now we here
Congratulations nationals, greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽
ESPN needs to do a 30 for 30 episode about the nationals' world series run.
Washington did incredible to come back like that.
Did you notice that when the Nationals won Astro fans emptied the whole stadium. What a sour bunch.......
The dodgers rly did tho
An incredible year,a team for "the ages",Baby Sharks and all!
Thank you Nats for the amazing season,postseason,and World Series!
"Now I'm a Believer"!!!
The Astros got too arrogant imo. The Nats stayed focused and humble and simply wanted it more than the Astros
Badger's Game Room that’s not true the Astros wanted their second ring
Badger's Game Room ye that’s not true baseball can really go any way but congrats to the nats but Us Astros will be back😏
My thoughts exactly. Even though it took a while for the Nats to start winning back in 2012, their fans have remained humble and have been loyal to the team since they came to Washington in 2005.
Ever since beating the Yankees in the 2017 ALCS, Astros fans have been flat out obnoxious and the team as a whole took the Nats too lightly. It's not a coincidence that Houston went from being 29th in attendance during their first year in the AL (2013) when they were terrible to 12th this year. Most of them fled after Biggio retired.
I'm happy for the Nats. Who would have thought DC would win championships in back to back years (Caps and Nats) after being constantly labeled as a city that chokes?
The Astros got too much cheating.
Congrats to the Nationals. You were a Cinderella Story this season. Down but not out. Yall managed to beat some of the best teams in baseball including my Astros. Tips my cap to the Nats!
Rendon finally getting attention. He could of/ should of been world series mvp
Lucas Blakemore he will be NL MVP
Soto should've won World Series MVP, I'm surprised he didn't
better story than the 2016 cubs tbh
This team was pretty much the Indians from the movie Major League.
As a white sox fan, and all Chicago fans in general, we know the pain of championship droughts, and the elation of victory after a long drought and the hundreds of millions of fans that never got to see their team win the big time, it makes the reward of winning so much sweeter.
The most improbable run in sports history, the 2019 Washington Nationals.
Glad for the nats fans.. Ive been to that park lots of times.. Those fans needed this..
My team my city GO NATS
I was living in the Washington, DC area when the team moved from Montreal in 2005. I remember so many lows I didn't think they ever win the Series. Man, am I happy I am wrong! Thanks for a great season Nats! Baby Shark!
Am going to watch this video later today when I have more time
exciting!! war team, united fought to the end, a hug to all the Nationals fans a fan of heart here from Brazil
The moment they booed Trump I knew they were America’s team and that they deserved victory.
This series will go down in history as one in which a team in which no one believed, ended up being crowned as WS champion. And the Astros will remember this series as the greatest nightmare they have ever lived, nor in their worst dreams did they think they could lose her like this.
And right after Bryce Harper left too....Ummm
Noah Railfanning he was the one who predicted it as well
Harper leaving allowed the Nats to get Corbin and Anibal though
Now rendon gone
This is why Peter Angelos of the Orioles was the only owner to vote against the nationals being founded. I’m happy for strasburg. He carried this team when they were bad and he hid the stench of a historically bad bullpen. it shifted when he decided to go no less than 7 every start and they started winning. Next thing you know we start doing the baby shark, get Hudson and he turns into chad Cordero (nats original closer who had 46 saves in the inaugural year and was amazing until an arm blowout. Haven’t had a closer since) and can’t stop winning. They were winning despite mad max being injured. They were winning TOGETHER. This fan base was set on fire by the summertime and the ballpark got louder and louder. You just had that feeling from june and so on. Then when the Braves beat them again, we thought it was over but the Nats AGAIN shut us up and got to the wild card. Everything that happened after only shocked the rest of America. To DC they’ve been champions since they came back 6 runs to the Mets in the bottom of the ninth in September. Nothing could beat these men’s spirits. I will never as long as I live stop telling the story of the 2019 nationals even if they win ten in a row. Nothing will ever top this group of special players.
Now i can die happy after Nats win World Series.
not too soon... they might win repeat....
1st DC team winning the World Series since the original Washington Senators in 1924, and 1st World Series win for a franchise that was imported from another country much less crossing from one city to another. 95 years of hopes and dreams FINALLY realized for the Washington Nationals. Congratulations from a Giants fan.
Lets go nats
do do do do do do
Let’s go NATS!
BabY
SHARK
DO DO DO-do do-DO
I see what you did there. ;)
What a magical season. The most magical season ever
That’s my team right there!
As a Yankee fan. The Nationals have done the impossible and something that is rlly difficult for a baseball team to ever do. It doesn’t matter now what their record is... Im just saying that They were the only team to do the impossible and comeback from heart breaking losses to heart warming wins
This team was an absolute joy to watch during the playoffs, a true underdog from rags to riches story come to fruition at last! Congrats D.C. inhabitants, you certainly deserve it for putting up with all the government clowns in office 😊
Don’t forget what division the Nationals were playing in. With the Braves, Mets, and Philly all having MVP caliber type players... Their 93 wins means way more than the 107 wins Astros got.
Patrick corbin made up for blowing the chris sale trade when the red sox swooped in
Good thing about the Nationals was that there was no 'I' in team. Any player in the team would've won the MVP. Rendon, Soto, Kendrick and Scherzer would've been the MVP but in the end, Strasburg won the World Series MVP. Congrats to the Nationals!
Team effort including Voth andbRoss stepping up whenMax went down for weeks.
Nationals: win World Series
Bryce Harper: You shouldn't have done that
His fault
Thanks MLB for putting this video together. It meant a lot to this nats fan
Today I found out that my gym coach was Trea Turner's track coach when he was in 8th grade.
35 yrs a Washingtonian...now I am 60 . How sweet it is to be the champion.❤️
