More World Series Notes

The Washington Nationals’ (6-2) World Series clinching win marked the third straight season the title was clinched by a four run margin. (Houston in ’17 and the Boston REd Sox in ’18 won the title at L.A. vs the Dodgers with (5-1) victories).

In 2005, the Chicago White Sox ended an 88 year title drought by sweeping the Houston Astros in 4 straight games. This season, Washington D.C. got its first baseball crown in 95 years when its Nationals beat the Astros in a maximum number, 7 game World Series.

It also was the first title in Nationals nee Expos history, occurring in the franchise’s 50th completed season.

The Nationals joined the NHL St. Louis Blues and the NBA Toronto Raptors as first time champions, all of whom clinched their titles with road victories.
