FINISH THE FIGHT

The Washington Nationals will face the Houston Astros in the 115th World Series starting on Tuesday night in Houston…The Nationals are appearing in their first World Series and in addition, are representing Washington D.C. in the World Series for the fourth time and the first time since 1933.

· The Nationals advanced to the World Series thanks to a sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals in the National League Championship Series…It was the fourth NLCS sweep since the LCS became a best-of-seven format in 1985: 2015 New York Mets, 2007 Colorado Rockies, 1995 Atlanta Braves…The Nationals look to join the 1995 Braves as the only Club to do so and go on to win the World Series.

WINNING WAYS

With their Game 4 win, the Nationals are 16–2 (.889) since Sept. 23…Combining regular season and Postseason, it is the best 18-game stretch in Nationals history (2005-pres.) and the second-best stretch in franchise (MON/WSH) history behind a 17–1 (.944) mark from Aug. 28-Sept. 25, 1979.
