Three and three for the Nats in the bottom of the ninth, and the road team has now won all World Series games so far!!!

7-1, Astros, your final from Nationals Park. We'll see you back in Houston on Tuesday for Game Six!

What a roller coaster ride.  Expect Strausburg to be extra tough tomorrow.  Also add the head scratching fact that Verlander is 0-5 in WS decisions.  I really truly expect to see a Game 7 Wednesday.

And those Nats now have Road Field Advantage.

I'm expecting Verlander to end that particular streek Tuesday evening in Minute Maid Park but it's baseball and no one knows.

. . . and just for the record, the umpiring behind the plate has sucked for both teams just about all Series long . . .

@EasyAce

But most egregious tonight. I wish those guys would get paid according to accuracy which gets determined after the game/series when videos can be viewed by an impartial panel.

@AllThatJazzZ
Lovely thought, but reality check: if they did get paid according to accuracy, too many of them would be on food stamps.

And it'd be real road field advantage: only one World Series has ever been played in which the visiting team won all the games---the 1906 Series, between the Cubs and the "Hitless Wonders" White Sox. But those two teams only had to hop crosstown trolleys to play the games.  :silly:

That could work. Once they figure out what an unpleasant way of life that is, they'll be motivated to hone their skills.

The absolute highlight of the game was this guy who used his belly to stop a home run ball rather than drop his two beers.

I saw the "Take me out to Impeachment" song from last night, so I'm switching allegiance for the rest of the Series. Go Astros!

Budweiser served him up on a silver platter by treating him in Houston for game 6 and giving him this shirt.

I hope they provided him with tickets to Game 7 as well.

Likely, but I wish there was no game 7.
