Seeing how excited Alex Smith's kids are for there dad is heartwarming. Think about the life lesson he taught them by getting back on Washington's roster. What happens after he's activated is irrelevant. Just amazing.

The Nationals are the 2019 World Series champions. They were 19-31. People wanted their manager fired. People wanted their vets traded off. They were down 5 times in elimination games. They won their last 8 road playoff games. One of the most legendary runs in MLB history.
