Irony of Ironies: Braves Win World Series after MLB Punished Them for Voter ID Law

  • The Atlanta Braves defeated the Houston Astros on Tuesday night 7-0 to clinch their first World Series win since 1995.
  • The Braves started off the World Series with a game one win. After a couple of close calls with the Astros tying up the series, the Atlanta team finally knocked out their opponents with a 4-2 series ending.
  • The team’s new title of reigning baseball champions follows a rocky season filled with ups and downs and the lowest record of wins, 88, for any of this year’s playoff teams. Shortly after acquiring key players Adam Duvall, Joc Pederson, Eddie Rosario, and Jorge Soler, the team gained enough steam to power through the fatigue of a long season to claim victory.
