It’s time for another Who Won the Week prompt. The idea behind Who Won the Week is for you to select who you think “won” this past week. Your selection can be anyone or anything — politicians, celebrities, athletes, authors, bloggers, your friends or family members, books, movies, TV shows, businesses, organizations, whatever.

I will be posting this prompt on Sunday mornings (my time). If you want to participate, write your own post designating who you think won the week and why you think they deserve your nod. Then link back to this post and tag you post with FWWTW.

My pick for this week is underdogs.

This week the Washington Nationals won Major League Baseball’s World Series. They beat the Houston Astros, who finished with the best record in baseball this year, at 107-55, and who were the overwhelming favorite to win a second championship in three years.

The Nationals, on the other hand, were the decided underdog. Their chances of winning the World Series on May 24, when they had won only 19 of their first 50 games, were only 1.5 percent. And yet, in a seven-game series, where the road teams won all seven games for the first time in World Series history, the underdog Nats came out on top.

So congratulations to the Washington Nationals, who brought a World Series title to the Nation’s Capital for the first time since the Washington Senators won it all in 1924.And now it’s your turn, folks. Who (or what) do you think won the week?
