The Rays' bullpenners dodge a one-out bloop single . . . still 4-1 Astros after seven, they're six outs from the ALCS . . .

Gerrit Cole strikes out two and gets an inning-ending groundout. 4-1 Astros, they're three outs away from the ALCS . . . and Cole may be done for the night, but what a performance he put on . . .

Michael Brantley opens the bottom of the eighth with a line shot over the right field fence, it's now 5-1 Astros batting in the bottom of the eighth!

Thanks, Bigun.  I have Dish.  I'll find it.

   @Sanguine I have Dish also and watched the Rockets beat up the Raptors 5AM this morning in Japan WITHOUT purchasing NBA League Pass.  I hope the aforementioned channel holds up, it even has the Golf Channel.

We go to the top of the ninth and the Astros are three outs from a date with the Empire Emeritus . . .

Roberto Osuna gets two fly outs and a swinging strikeout and for the third straight season the Astros are going to the American League Championship Series!

It'll be St. Elsewhere vs. E.R. in this ALCS, considering the injury bugs ravaging the Yankees and the Astros this season.

6-1 your final from Minute Maid Park.

@EdJames and all my other friends in Florida, your guys played their hearts out and accomplished a great deal. Frankly, more than I ever thought they would. Congratulations Rays on a great season!

Have the feeling that the REAL 'championship' series is the Astros/Yankees...and the an Astro/Nats World Series would be anti-climatic.

I'm going to be totally honest with you @EdJames, I was sweating bullets today wondering if the bats would come back alive in time. Thankfully for us, they did.

I'm currently enjoying 3 fingers worth of Balavene Caribean Cask.

   4 runs in the First always help, Cole on the mound is the icing on the cake.

They did at exactly the right time!

Enjoy your sip my friend, well deserved....

I am toasting the end of a surprisingly good season with what is the last finger and half of my Laphroaig Lore....  a fitting finish on both fronts!!

I don't take anythng for granted.  These Astros go into unexplicit slumps out of the blue.  I was afraid games 3 & 4 of this TB series were going to carry over into Game 5.

Astros cold bats + Scherzer and Strausberg and Corbin = Nats WS win
