It’s certainly a mad, mad, mad, mad world in MLB, what with the big red W’s finding treasure in the 7th game of the World Series … on the road and against all odds. lt took a team with a pretty sturdy constitution to find those late inning runs, amid thousands of screaming Texans and against an All-Star pitcher who was, by the start of the 7th, simply cruising with a 1-hitter. Rendon got them going with a homer, and then Howie hunkered down and found a pitch he could handle. When the dust had cleared, Houston’s questionable bullpen was just not up to standards, and Cole (who for whatever reason was not ready) sat harmlessly watching from the bench. We’ve never seen a road warrior series like this one, and don’t expect a repeat in your lifetime. Let’s hope there are a few Washingtonians who’ve been around for the 90+ year wait and now have another title. #Nationals #Astros
