    It is in the video. Springer credited Beltran for rallying the troops after being down 2-3 to the Yankees.

    Excluding the One Game playoff @NYY -- Correa has never posted a poor offensive postseason round.

    OPS
    .817
    .913
    .963
    1.081

    Educated guess says he's the Only in franchise history (min 3 rounds)

    Today on Thanksgiving I'd just like to say I'm thankful the Astros won their first World Series.

    Hinch shouldn't put in giles. Just go with morton. He's rolling and has earned the right to seal the deal or give up the lead! Let's do this stros!

    Had a chance to re-watch game 7 again... Man I'm so glad we were able to pull that out... The Dodgers' hitters were pressing so hard and could have really killed McCullers and the team. This team was a team of destiny. Morton was amazing and was still throwing 96MPH in the 9th inning. Just simply amazing.

    Apparently every one of them is getting a supercar.

    Maybe this is what they are spending their playoff shares on

    That’s what I was thinking. I don’t know what these cars cost but that World Series check should cover a nice chunk of it.

    there is a YouTube channel called "Spence" I think...he has all the games uploaded in HD. With the commercials cut out, kind of in a way. I think it is the YouTube TV feed. But anyways, it has a great picture, and has good sound. I watched game 5 this past Saturday....all 5 hours and 41 minutes of it, LOL. It was just as intense, and I loved it just as much. I cannot get enough of watching these games for some reason, even the losses. You can see the emotion, and them talking to each other and getting their s*** together to go ahead and start kicking some ass! I can feel it in my bones, LOL.

    I was rewatching Game 5 and with all the stuff that went on in the series I totally forgot about Altuve's 3-run shot so when he hit it I was pleasantly surprised...again. It was like watching it live.

    I would love a back back WS championship but I will be satisfy if we can at minimum get back to the playoffs and win at-least one series. Anything less will be a disappointment for this group.

    We're down 4-0 in Game 5, for the 11th time, Kershaw's on the mound, hopefully we can pull this one out....

    This **** never gets old.

    Pretty sure I watched the Mario Elie/KOD game semi-regularly for at least 4-5 years.... and only stopped because the video tape started getting a little janky.

    This one trumps that, AND in the age of DVR, it will never lose any bit of quality.

    I always have confidence we are gonna erase that 4-0 deficit, but when we give the lead right back I still expect us to lose. Altuve manages to shock me every damn time.

    Seriously, just the mention of baseball still manages to put a smile on my face right now.

    I somehow happened to be filming the MVP chant when Tuve hit that 3 run bomb to tie it back up. That game was the highlight of my sports life.
