    You made up a bunch of crap about momentum and passed it off as fact. Fake. News.

    Hinch and his team should be embarrassed and ashamed of themselves.

    This team folds too easily to set backs.

    I am sure his job is safe, but at some point the Astros lack of tenacity should reflect on him and how Hinch has prepared his ball club.

    You sure are trying hard to make this personal, and NOTHING was ever said about you.

    It is not over until it is over. This game isn't over. The series isn't over. Let's see what happens. Strange things can happen.

    Yankee's been really good at home since the all star break. What's our home record been by comparison?

    Out of all the chokes, this might be the worse. 1986 astros had better hitting. Bagwell biggie astros couldn't hit but at least scored some runs
    2004 -2005 astros hit better. I think 2015 astros , Erasmus has more homeruns than this team did

    I didnt make anything up or predict anything. I said if we are to win the series, our best chance is for verlander to inspire the team and give us momentum.

    Why do you have a problem with me saying that?

    I really believe a lot of this is playing in Yankee Stadium. The Astros will likely play far better in MMP. Well enough to win two in a row? We will see.

    No. Quite happy when we win. You are just clearly stupid thinking early season NBA games mean something.

    We're all glad they won.

    Probably our greatest sports memory.

    Good comment.

    Yeah, sometimes the pinstripes and atmosphere are overwhelming. Every single one of the guys on the Astros bench (with maybe the exception of Guriel) can remember watching the Yankees triumph in October over and over. And then suddenly, there you are...struggling....and it gets in your head.

    Thank you. There was nothing homer about me saying IF we are to win the series, our best chance is for verlander to inspire the team in game 6

    I do get that we are all frustrated, but that dude read me wayyyyy wrong lol

    You should hang out with Christian Grey. He’d love you.

    I'm half expecting Hacksaw to start dragging AStros back one by one and throwing them over the Ridge.

    I've been saying this all year. Hinch is a cuck and it rubs off on the players.

    I still think we win this series though with home advantage and our stacked roster. But Hinch is not a great manager and never will be.

    If you are saying the asterisk comes from everyone else I can understand. But if it's also coming from you then gtfoh.
