By beating against the St Louis Cardinals 7-4 the Washington Nationals reached the World Series for the first time.
The success finished a remarkable turnaround and ensured a 4-0 MLB League Championship Series sweep.
Nationals director Dave Martinez had confronted the bag in May after a 19-31 beginning to the season.
His group will play with 27-time winners the New York Yankees or either 2017 champions the Houston Astros in the World Series, starting on 22 October.
The Astros lead the Yankees 2-1 in their best-of-seven-series.

After functioning in 1969, the Nationals relocated from Canada to the US capital and were also renamed.
It is not the first time the World Series has been made by a Washington-based team. The former Washington Senators failed it but were relocated to turn into the Minnesota Twins that are current in 1961.
