Thank goodness for the retractable roof with the way it's raining now. Imagine waiting all week for the World Series to start only to have Game 1...
Pretty good company to be in given that the other two teams won the World Series. I'll go with Astros in 6.
Dumb question, but if Brooklyn(who currently sits at 1-4 just like the Rockets) winds up in the lottery, their ping pong balls essentially count...
Yeah, that 107 win total is deceiving for the 2019 team. They were a great ballclub, don't get me wrong. But they barely got by Tampa in the ALDS,...
That's why Silas is still here. There's no way they fire him midseason when they're trying to tank for Wemby or Scoot. And no veteran coach would...
Don't they have a toddler at home? Maybe she wants to be a mom for a while.
The Phillies are a dangerous team. But a big difference between last year's WS and this one is that Bregman, Verlander, and McCullers are healthy...
Yeah, closing it out tonight was so critical. Now we get Verlander and Framber at MMP next weekend.
So is Pena the MVP or is it Pressly?
Horrible baserunning by Altuve. Alvarez's groundout would've gotten him to 3rd and then Bregman at least would've had a shot to single him in.
Top of the order due up for the Astros. Tack on a run or two and make the 9th inning a lot easier for Pressly.
I wouldn't mind that at all. 6-7-8 due up for the Yankees.
DO NOT hit into another double play, Breggy.
It is. Dusty trusted him to get the 5-6-7 hitters out and that was a worthwhile risk.
Key inning here. Don't let the bottom of the order hurt you.
That one was on Maldy. Although Lance doesn't have it tonight.
Lance got a generous one last inning, but it at least grazed the bottom of the strike zone. That one against Pena wasn't even close.
Maldy drew a walk in the last inning and scored on Pena's homer. Dusty is making the right calls.
Hopefully Lance can get through the 4th, but Dusty will have a quick hook with 9-1-2 due up.
I hope McCullers isn't too rusty after sitting that long. The Astros damn near batted around that inning and the Yankees reliever had a long time...
