WASHINGTON – October 1 is the anniversary of several major events in the history of the Washington Nationals – and Major League Baseball as well.
It was two years ago today here at Nationals Park that young Juan Soto hit a bases-loaded single to right field off Brewers’ lefty Josh Hader that drove in the tying runs, before the go-ahead run scored on an error on the play, as Washington beat Milwaukee in the National League Wild Card contest.
That, of course, propelled the Nationals on the road to their first World Series title.
