00:00The Washington Nationals are having a bad baseball year.
00:05However, the Washington Nationals have a chance to do something pretty hysterical.
00:12They may have a chance to join the 1931 Yankees.
00:18Okay, the 1931 Yankees had an unbelievable roster.
00:24Now, I think I said the 27 Yankees in the beginning, so I apologize.
00:27Not the 27 Yankees, but the 31 Yankees.
00:30The 31 Yankees, that was Babe Ruth.
00:34That was Lou Gehrig.
00:36They went 94-59.
00:39They had an AL record 1,067 runs scored and a plus 307 run differential.
00:47That's the seventh best since 1920.
00:50When you're watching baseball, do you put the Washington Nationals in the same category as the 1931 New York Yankees?
00:59Because I don't.
01:01However, that's exactly where the Nats could be.
01:04The 52, 53, and 55 Dodgers also did this, where they led Major League Baseball in runs, home runs, and
01:14steals in the same season.
01:16They currently lead Major League Baseball with 670 runs.
01:21They have 180 home runs and 135 stolen bases.
01:26They could be the fifth team in the history of Major League Baseball to accomplish this feat if they keep
01:33it going with six weeks left.
01:35But you don't be sure if you think it was originally going to be a new conference.
01:35And within the couple this year, then you can see even moreMic movements in the future.
