    First series in NHL, NBA, and MLB history in which the road team wins first 6 games (1420 chances).

    Astros can fix everything tomorrow.

    So basically guys, in any sport, there has never been a final series where the road team has won every game.

    It's never happened.

    Verlander 0-6 and Strausberg 5-0. Hopefully Zack can pull through

    Yeah, but we're not crying and whining about it at least.

    Correa getting that hit in the bottom of the 9th, hopefully that wakes him up for game 7. I honestly have 0 idea which Astros team will decide to show up tomorrow.

    And now it's a new record of 6 games in a WS. An ignominious new record. Yay, another all-time-first this season....

    No clue what is going to happen tomorrow. Even if I did have a clue I don't dare make any predictions now..

    Strasburg saying he shakes his glove so they can't see his pitches. Interesting

    Astros need Harden and Westbrook in the building.

    Haven't won in Minute Maid since.

    Strasburg says he was tipping and his PC had to tell him.

    Sorry but if we dont win this year then I feel like we can become this years Warriors. Had a dominating regular season then choked in the finals. I think if we lose Cole next season then we can expect some major regression. We dont know how Lance will recover, is Urqudy ready to be the #4, Verlander can only regres next year as well. You can tell that Verlander doesnt have the fastball command as he had earlier and you can tell its because of the vast innings he pitched during the regular season. Also, Brantley has never been as healthy as he was this year.

    Maybe im just annoyed that this will have a domino effect, but we need to win this year. This was OUR year.
