Washington Nationals win NLCS - Charlie Slowes' Radio Call 

Fellow baseball fans, please check out my series of videos breaking down major baseball topics! My latest on the Houston Astros cheating scandal, comparing it to every major scandal in baseball history is here! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Zt0sYi1zttE.html

"And for the first time since 1933, we'll have a World Series in the NATION'S CAPITAL" absolute goosebumps. God bless you, from London UK

The Washington sports arc is beautiful, painful losses to sweet sweet victory

Idk why, but him repeating "he makes the catch" makes the call a million times better

As a Mets fan, I could not be more proud of this team. I watched them as the Expos and as the Nats suffering loss after loss in the late 2000's. They were almost dead and buried in May and then stormed back to win the pennant. Congrats to the Washington Nationals and cheers to a hopefully entertaining World Series. No matter who wins in the ALCS, I will root for this team. Unlike other NL teams I've seen go to the world series, there isn't an unlikable guy on this team. I want them to win it not only for Washington, but Montreal as well

As a Marlins fan, I remember watching the Nats play in the RFK stadium now they are going to the WS, congrats!

Listening to Charlie Slowes celebratory calls never gets old.

I'm a retired old fart and saw the Senators at D.C. Stadium. They were perennial doormats, except that one season that Ted Williams somehow wrestled them to 86 wins (no playoff berth, natch). Then came the 33 year drought, when occasional hopes got up - and were dashed. Longtime D.C. sports fans remember seeing the "Baseball in D.C. sign being displayed at various sporting events all those long years, during which I finished high school, went to college, began and nearly completed mt career before baseball returned to D.C., thanks to the Lerner family. No one alive has seen a team do what this one did - make the playoffs after being 12 games below .500. It has been a magical season. The wheat was separated from the chaff among the fan base during those dark days of April and May. N - A - T - S - NATS! NATS! NATS! WHOO! #STAY IN THE FIGHT! GO NATS!

I lived in the DC area from 1958 to 1971, I moved to Australia three months before the Senators left Washington. I still followed baseball,as best I could,for many years,without a Washington team. Thanks to the internet,I can now follow the game more closely than I could as a kid (only about thirty games televised and my dad and'or neighbors taking me to four or five games live). In 2001,there was talk that the newly re-instated Montreal Expos (remember when Montreal and Minnesota were kicked out! of the MLB,. By the way,both of those franchises made the play offs this year) and started to follow them for the next three years.After all the trials and tribulations of the next three years,it was finally "Baseball is back,in Washington". From then on I had a new friend that I have never met,Charlie Slowes and a year later Dave Jageler. From Feb. to Oct. those two guys are part of my family. I have nothing against Bob and F.P. but radio commentary is far better than television(except in the case of the D'Backs).I listen to them,every game. In my opinion are the best in the business,they entertain me and make me laugh every game,even in the dark days of the late 2000's. Not only have I come to know and love them,their fondness for the players comes across and helps us listeners get to know the various individuals. I was so glad that I got to hear Charlie and Dave call the World Series Championship,you know the one Washington fans never expected would happen. Thank you Charlie and Dave for the many years I have listened to you and hope there are many (successful) more to come.

I want to talk about Charlie Slowes call here. It seems like he had practiced what he was going to say when they clinched the pennant, but somehow didn't believe it was happening until about halfway through. It was like hearing someone start to believe in magic again. Very touching. Great call. Go NATS!

You know the whole country is pulling for the Nats!

15 Days Later... They are the World Series Champions.

One of the best radio calls in MLB history. Bar. None. You can totally tell that Charlie had something rehearsed for the moment and then pure excitement just absolutely took over. Probably the same way that Duane Kuiper felt when Bonds hit HR #756.

I’m a Cubs fan....but this makes me so happy. Go Nats!!!! P.s. Imagine how Harper is feels right now😂😂😂

As a Cubs fan, 0:49 is better than every highlight of the 2016 season put together

As a "Howie Rose" fan, I was never sure how I felt about Charlie Slowes. Sometimes I'd hear Mets / Nats on 1500 here in NY and thought he sometimes sounded a tad plastic. But his genuine enthusiasm and strong play-calling / imagery during this series was excellent. I watched the game, but listening to the radio broadcast. Looking forward to the WS. I've become a fan.

Congratulations Nationals, you just earned your First NLCS Pennant, and this is coming from an Astros Fan

Thanks for the audio of Charlie as he is one of the best in the business.

Charlie Slowes in my book, is the best play-by-play radio guy in the MLB

Cap tip to the Cardinals, Dodgers and Brewers from this Nats fan. You are all outstanding teams and worthy opponents. You have great players and great fans, and I am sure you'll be right back in the thick of the playoffs next year. In 2019, y'all just ran into an unstoppable freight train coming down the tracks, full speed.

A great moment for the Nats....but also a moment to remember the Montreal Expos, the team's predecessor. If they were still in Montreal, I bet the French language commentators would be saying, "sacre bleu"! Kudos to the Nats!

That's a good call, congrats

Even as an Oriole fan (from Pennsylvania) I'm going for Washington. They're one of the biggest underdogs in baseball.

Giants fan here. Congrats on winning the pennant!

Astros fan, happy for you guys

So freakin excellent

Just found this, thanks. I was there that night, what Dave Martinez called "a beautiful place." Enjoying the team finally winning the pennant.

Imagine had he called the world series game. Bang, zoom go the fireworks! A world series winning curly w is in the books!

As an Angels fan , I’m Rooting for you Nats ! Show those try hards the true underdog strength

Love this! Love the way Charlie Slowes calls a game and the fact that you posted it is even better. As an aspiring broadcaster who lives in a CPL market I really fell in love with your work last summer!

Not long ago, the Capitals won the Stanley Cup, and just recently saw the Mystics win the WNBA title. Go Nats Go... and I'm a Blue Jays fan. What would've been had "Les Expos" stood in Montréal...

What a call remember where you are so you remember where u were

To the four people who voted "thumbs down" on this video----now you know how we felt in 2012!

Sad to see where we are now

😭😭😭 good times

legendary.

This is amazing ! Any chance you could find the john walton goodmorning good afternoon goodnight st louis call? Heard it on 106.7 but cant find the audio. Please and thank you. Lets go nattsss

If it's Nats vs. Astros, call it "The George Bush Cup." If it's nats vs. Yankees, call it "The Amtrak Series."

Did they cure cancer or something?

This team reminds me a lot of the 1969 Mets.

An old baseball joke.referring to the old washington senators _what was the turning point most Senator games_answer,when umpire said"play ball".

Im from Virginia so I’m happy they won I was at game three of the NLCS but my favorite team is the Yankees

Too bad die hard expos fans like myself can’t get excited about this. In fact it’s the opposite...This is a team with no ties pre-2004 and does little to acknowledge it’s rich franchise history. Washington had an opportunity to get Montreal fans to embrace this franchise but put absolutely no effort in. Good luck in the World Series, but to Montreal baseball fans this is NOT a shared victory

Thought that was Bryce Harper in the outfield making the final catch. Oh right, he's on the golf course. ⛳

what is the song in the background?
