⚾ The 'Win' Pattern

In this text, we see different ways to say a team was successful. To reach A2, you need to recognize that these three phrases mean the same thing:

  • Won their games \rightarrow (Simple past of 'win')
  • Beat [Another Team] \rightarrow (To defeat someone)
  • Played well \rightarrow (Good performance)

Example from text: "The Seattle Mariners beat the Houston Astros."


💡 Quick Tip: 'In a row'

When the text says the Brewers won "five games in a row," it means: 1st game (Win) → 2nd game (Win) → 3rd game (Win) → 4th game (Win) → 5th game (Win)

It is a sequence with no losses in between.
