After 26 long years, the Atlanta Braves are World Series champions once again.
The Houston Astros took the Braves to Game 6, and back to Minute Maid Park, but in the end, Atlanta was able to prevent a Game 7 and get the job done on Tuesday night. The Braves blanked the Astros 7-0 to take the series 4-2.
Fittingly, Jorge Soler, whose three-run, third-inning homer on Tuesday night approached the stratosphere, was named World Series MVP after hitting .300 with three home runs, six RBIs and three walks during the six-game series.
