Tuesday, September 4th, 2007: GCL (WSH) Nationals Capture Round 2
The Nationals earned their 1st Round 2 title and now get to spend all winter basking in glory, while the beaten Dodgers will have many sleepless nights wondering what went wrong.

GCL (WSH) is the Gulf Coast League Champions for 2007. They did it with a 6-5 triumph to capture the series 4-3.

"Both clubs are talented. We just made fewer mistakes than they did," the winning manager said to the press corps at the postgame press conference. "We made the crucial plays and got the timely hits."

The GCL (LA) skipper agreed with that assessment and added, "We were a little weak on fundamentals at crucial times. I have a sneaky suspicion we will be working on fundamentals a lot next spring."

On the way to the Round 2 championship, the Nationals ended up in second place in the East and compiled a 33-21 record during the regular season.
