Welo, JV didn't clinch the Series last night, but all was not lost, I can assure you.The LR grading scale is soooo off. No way Verlander is shacked up with a 3/10. Even Russ would be okay with the feet/toes situation.

McCullers better be great for Houston. Except for Peacock, the Dodgers have dominated the bullpen battle.
I kinda like being the only Texan that is cheering for the Dodgers amongst my little groups. "I always pull for Texas teams..." yeah, except how many players on each team are FROM Texas? I equate it to Miami(FL) this year... I would not and could not pull for them to win any game, let alone a game that might bring them some prestige or swagger.
I was a huge Dodger fan growing up and still am, if not playing the Astros. But this Astros team is much more likeable than that Dodgers team.
You know the rivalry, I just can't bring myself to cheer for the blue and orange from down 45. (Though, apparently, they outnumber the Dodgers on actual Texans 2-1... had no idea Gattis was born in Dallas.)
Maybe if Houston was still in the NL...
I bought that issue back in 2014 when it was released. If the Astros win tonight, I'm definitely getting it framed immediately.Prophetic?
With the way both teams have answered, this is a big half inning for the Astros. A quick 3 up, 3 down will be big.
Lordy, that guy is just awesome. I dunno that I can remember any World Series with this kinda fireworks. Bombs away, me boys!
Was reading an article today where all the pitchers we're complaining about the balls. Said the balls this season were already juiced but that the WS balls were even worse.
They say it's like thowing a billiard ball - can't get spin on it so you get lots of balls hanging over the plate.
I remember that issue and telling my friend that we have a bunch of young picks that will make some noise in a few yrs and he just rolled his eyes. That SI writer was probably strutting around pretty cocky last night.
