    Expos get some long-term karma back their way for the '95 season they could have won it all... until the strike.

    I hate to say it but the Nats were a team of destiny.

    they were the mid 90’s Rockets and we were the Knicks

    Just flat out didn’t play well at home. Grinded through the whole postseason, never made it easy.

    Appreciate the damn good season, just ended up not being great.

    Thanks to all the people that made this forum go.

    The one thing I want is an electronic strike zone next year. Wouldn’t have made a difference, I just feel like they should use the technology considering they have it.

    Well, we still will have 2017, and I'm glad this went 7 games, sucks to be on the other side but.... Nationals just clicked at the right time and Astros didn't hit any longer. Hopefully it'll make them more hungry next year.

    Good year for the Astros though, on a side note congrats to Nats and their fans, thankfully Yankees lost and no Dodgers, hahah.

    Hinch just sucked so hard tonight. The Chirinos bunt? Removing greinke for harris? Putting osuna in after Harris? LEAVING OSUNA IN SO ****ING LONG??? Never going to Cole?????

    FU Hinch

    I think Cole was coming in for a 3-6 out save. Nothing else.

    Man it’s really hard to still watch sports when u get close so many times like this or the local team let’s u down more often then not. Why can’t we be like Boston winning championships every damn season.

    Astros winning two years ago was awesome, a curse lifted finally but are we seriously going to have to wait another 20 years for the next title?

    Rockets close a few times but never got over the Warriors hump. Astros pulling a 90’s Atlanta Braves on us and the Texans lol

    Every move Hinch made didn’t work. Not his night for sure. But, I’m pretty sure he would never do it differently had it to do over again.
