The Turning Point of the 2019 World Series (Nationals’ Howie Kendrick’s huge home run) – YouTube
I usually would never put something baseball related on my blog this time of year, but Howie Kendrick announced today he’s retiring from baseball after a glorious fifteen year career.
Howie in his fifteen year MLB career played for the Angels, the Phillies, the LA Dodgers, and of course the Washington Nationals where he closed out his career in dream-like fashion by leading the Nationals to the World Series championship and in the process winning the MVP.
Above is the video of Howie hitting his Series changing homer against the cheating Houston Astros.
What a magical post season Howie and the Washington Nats gave all of us in 2019.
I would say this home run and the one Joe Carter hit off Mitch ‘Wild Thing” Williams are my two favorite World Series home runs of all-time.
