I don’t really follow B.B. but this has been fun.

If the Astros win this game, what’s their chances of beating L.A.?

 

[pmedic920]

Guess we’ll find out.

Go Astros

 

[Josea16]

I assume the Astros won?

Pretty good I’d say. Houston is a fun team to watch. Just about the perfect balance of pitching, hitting, and defense and speed. Altuve is a baller, the dude is about 5’5” and one of the most complete players in baseball. He could play for my team any day of the week.

Congrats to Houston for knocking off the Yankees!

Yep, 4-0. :lol:

Yep, 4-0. [emoji1]

Only allowed 1 Run in the final two games.

I was impressed, really doubted they could win both of those last two games.

Edit
And only used 2 pitchers in tonight’s game.

Cool. I'm in for rooting for the Astros but the Dodgers are ridiculously good in every phase of the game.

Vegas only has LA as a slight favorite. Dodgers are good, but so is Houston.
Every run is going to count in this WS.

Don’t remember the futures odds but I was thinking about putting money on Houston to win the AL pennant in the last offseason.
Wish I would have.

I remember them being a utter joke in the NL and then they join the AL West and dominate. So it's hard for me to really wrap my head around the fact that they are really good. Sports can be so weird.

They scouted and drafted really well, and they’ve nailed a few trades along the way.
They did a TOTAL teardown and rebuild 5 years ago or so.

It should be a great World Series. First time in quite a while where both World Series teams had more than 100 wins in the regular season.

Both teams have stacked lineups on offense. I think the advantage the Dodgers have over Houston is the bullpen. The main knock on Houston is their lack of a pen. Obviously some of that can change in the postseason when you can turn to starters.

I'm just hoping for a competitive and long series with the Houston Astros eventually winning.

 

[pmedic920]

GoAstros.

Looks like it’s hovering right around 100 degrees.

That’s hot.

 

[Threedee]

103° at first pitch is brutal. Especially to this Seattleite.

 

[Hawk-Lock]

What a comeback! This type of loss for the Dodgers might affect them the rest of the series. I like the Astros chances now, wouldn't shock me if the series never gets back to LA.

 

[Bobblehead]

geeezus.. Choke.

 

[Hawk-Lock]

Giles blows. Amazing that he is one of the best options in a World Series bullpen. This is exactly why the Astros won't win it. Hinch should have pulled him a few hitters ago.

Awesome, though it guarantees that the Mariners will suck forever.

 

[pmedic920]

Wow.
Game 2, I got to watch up to the 7th, then caught a call at work. Had to see the highlight version of the end.

I agree, Astros have a decent chance now.

 

[Bobblehead]

I must say, this has been a very entertaining WS.. good drama all around.
