The 2022 Houston Astros: Breaking the Cheating Cycle
The Houston Astros are the 2022 World Series champions. They beat the Philadelphia Phillies in six games. Jeremy Peña won the World Championship MVP. In 2017, Houston had an amazing year, winning 101 games during the regular season and beating the Los Angeles Dodgers in a thrilling seven-game World series for the championship. The MLB launched an investigation into the team in January 2020. It turned out that the Astros stole the opposing team's pitching signs. The team lost to the Yankees in the American League Championship Series in October. This is the first time in history that a team has won both World Championships in consecutive seasons.
