    David vs. Goliath

    I can see why many in the national media are going for David.

    But damn it feels good to be Goliath.

    Great to see Reddick come through. Would be a huge bonus if he’s able to produce. I thought Correa looked much better at his PA.

    Would be great to end these 3 outs quickly and get Kluber back in with little rest.

    Eckersley is a former Indian. He's best remembered as an Athletic but the Indians were the team that drafted him.
    I have to imagine he has to have some feelings for them because of that.

    Sure, the Rockies or Braves wouldn't be favored but saying you'd be a surprised if a 90+ win team won the world series is ignorant.

    Good thing the Indians are playing much below the quality of my post! Go Astros!!

    I don't think you understand the definition of "ignorant." But good try.

    I love the MLB AtBat alert for Bregman. He has 5 postseason HRs and his victims are:

    Chris Sale (twice)
    Clayton Kershaw
    Kenley Jansen
    Corey Kluber

    That is an impressive list. All 4 would be pretty much unanimous top 10 most dominant pitchers in baseball.

    Big strikeout against Donaldson after he sat during a long half-inning. Nice JV!!

    TBS's production sucks. commentators are useless. no interesting visuals. Where the hell is the pitch speed on the screen?

    Yeah, when they're not cutting over to Judge highlights from 2 nights ago. What a joke. Honestly. Why are you showing A's/Yankees highlights?

    Verlander brought his usual A game to October.

    How do you not ask the first base ump for an opinion on that check swing, Maldonado?

    Maybe JV telepathically told him that he was going to strike him out proper with the next pitch.

    Lol, it usually is a pleasant surprise when Reddick gets a big hit. I'm happy he did. Hope he gets more this postseason and rid himself of the playoff choker label.
