For most of the 2025 season, Washington Nationals fans have been looking toward the future. Suddenly, the future feels a lot closer.
After grinding through a tough year, the Nats have caught fire in September, winning five of their first six games and breathing life back into a fanbase desperate for something to cheer about. The spark was a dominant three-game sweep of the Miami Marlins at home from September 1-3, and the momentum has only grown since, capped by a 15-7 thrashing of the very same Marlins on Monday, and a 7-5 victory on Tuesday.
