    I'm an idiot. I meant Astros fans outnumber Nats fans 20 to 1 here.

    In fact I may be being too generous.

    I think I've seen like 3 people in Nats gear and at least 100 people sporting Astros stuff.

    I had no idea the Astros were so popular.

    I remember everyone screaming their heads off that Crane taking over and the move to the AL would be the death of the franchise. Lolz.

    Ever since the switching back to the current logos, merchandise has shot through the roof. You add that to the winning and the slaying of giants, the likes of the yanks, red sox, dodgers with a bunch of players that seem to be universally adored and admired like Altuve and Springer, you have a recipe for a lot of extra "fans".

    It’s OK Nats are still pesky. One is enough for me

    Would be cool if Urquidy got a hit and started a rally.

    MVP Bregman will be activated today! Jake makes a great play in the OF and scores a run.

    Go 'stros!!

    I think (hope) that the fact Astros got to see corbin in game 1 will help them as well

    The best players on the team are very likeable especially Altuve and Verlander.

    "The Astros are hoping to get five innings and/or around 75 pitches out of Jose Urquidy tonight in Game 4."

    Corbin has killed LHB this year (.190 .260 .248 .508) and Jake's had a bit of success against him (4-5, 2B).
