Confidence in Washington Nationals up slightly as they prepare for NL Wild Card game...

Welcome to SB Nation FanPulse, a survey of fans across MLB. Each week, we send 30 polls to plugged in fans from each team. Nationals fans, sign up HERE to join FanPulse.

The results are in for the final week of the SB Nation’s FanPulse voting in the regular season, and this year that doesn’t mean the end of the campaign for the Washington Nationals.

That’s right, they’re going to play at least 163 games this season, because Davey Martinez’s club earned a spot in the NL Wild Card game this week, locking up a ticket to the play-in to make it to the NLDS, where the season has ended in all of the Nats’ four previous trips to the postseason.
