Washington had an exhilarating baseball season in 2012. Despite last Friday’s disappointing loss, the Nationals brought D.C. its first playoff spot in nearly 80 years and nabbed the division title. The other historical moment in this playoff series: Teddy finally won a presidential race.

A few DCist Flickr pool contributors got to experience this thrilling ride in Washington sports history. Thanks for sharing these wonderful photos.

This is my last weekend post. I learned a lot from all of you. You’ll be in good hands in the future. Thanks for taking the time to read DCist during the weekend. Cheers!
