 :yowsa: On paper, the Astros should be a lock but they don't play baseball games on paper do they?  They are played by human beings on fields of dirt and grass with a few chalk lines thrown in and no one knows what the outcome is going to be until the last out of the last inning is recorded! I wouldn't have it any other way!

I've already taken a 1/2 days worth of vacation to watch the game tomorrow.
Damn Yankees took the prime time game.
No matter who wins the series between our Astros and Rays, I think we should root for Minnesota............

Yankees lose their ALDS?  Put the COB office, and media on suicide watch.

The other 3 teams are ratings poison for these bastards.

I wish I could, but I'm a little tied up with business right now. Hoping to get to either the Cardinals/Braves or the Nationals/Dodgers later today!

Geez....the very second the TV picture comes on, I'm watching Jose Altuve admiring his moon shot for a 2-0 lead.

Tampa remove the pitcher, who had only given up 3 hits over 5 innings in a scoreless game up to that point.

Only Glasnow’s 5th start from coming off DL....  he was going to give about 85 pitches max...  went out after 76.... I guess he was gassed....  a lot of high stress pitches too....

Verlander is built for this stage, it seems.  Rays can't do anything.

Scherzer coming in to pitch in relief...striking out the side...surprised even his teammates.

Dodgers/Nationals tied at 1 game apiece.

Congratualtions on a clutch win against their ace on the road.

I am convinced that Clayton Kershaw is baseball's version of Jim Kelly.

Kershaw's lifetime post season record is now 9-11.

Gerrit Cole tonight  (20-5, 2.50. era).  Zack Grienke Monday- (18-5, 2.93 era).

Add Bregman, Altuve, Springer, Alvarez, and Correa?

Yeah, I like our chances.

LOL!  Same way I'm feeling with Scherzer, Strasburg, Corbin, Sanchez.

Dodgers don't hit Southpaws.   Looking to win Game 3 in D.C. Sunday night.

Here's to a Nationals vs, Astros World Series, @catfish1957      :beer:

It would indeed but I'm not making any predictions.  I  know how crazy baseball is.  Anything can happen.

@DCPatriot

That would be my 2nd choice, but it's nothing personal. I have a BFF (since 1951) who lives in Atlanta. I'd really like to engage in a little smack talk with her as we pound the Braves into the ground. That would serve her right for leaving Texas.  22222frying pan

Will be rooting for the Nats tomorrow.

FS1 also.
All they talked about for 3 innings Saturday night was how great Snell looked, and how to beat Gerrit Cole.
Osuna made me nervous.......
