    He's been doing that for a while and it's awesome every time. The NONONONONONOOOOOO is classic...and "profundo" is HR, in case someone didn't pick that up.

    vs the Yanks in 2017 they were down in the series 3-2, facing elimination.
    So proud of this team no matter what happens this season more than last. They're pulling these wins with no Cole no Verlander.

    I feel like the Astros always beat up Snell with high pitch counts and a lot of base runners but never can fully deliver with just some bad luck.

    Hopefully that luck changes tomorrow.

    Dude, his mom has Huntington's Disease and he got to keep her relatively safer and spend time with her. No idea how anyone can view that as a bad decision.

    Ya and it feels good to have him next season with all these young guys. Next season is very hopeful if we can at least resign one of Brantley or Springer.

    It really sucks for him though. Can't be upset at him.

    Feel free to pick. I presume I have typed it wrong so many times that my phone has established that as the proper spelling.

    I figured if anyone would be the one to do it, it would be him... but geezus words cannot describe the catharsis I felt when he hit it. I figured it had a chance, but I've seen a few balls we've hit look like they had a chance only to die in the outfield. Meanwhile everything the rays elevate seems to leave the yard.

    WHAT. A. GAME.

    Not only did we just become the 4th team ever down 0-3 to force a game 6, but Correa's timing was impeccable. Framber preserved to start tomorrow.

    Just keep the mindset. All we have to do is win ONE GAME. You worry about the next day when that happens.

    I have so much joy and happiness right now. I don't even feel petty like I did after game 4. I am just so grateful, thankful, excited...

    Thank you Carlos Correa for always standing up for our city, our team, for calling out the self-righteous hypocrites all offseason, thank you for being a diva and wanting the spotlight on you. Thank you for performing when the pressure is at an all time high. You are a Houston sports treasure.

    A few thoughts.

    1) Josh James should not be on this roster, now or in the future.

    2)We win game 6, I like our odds to stir **** up and win game 7. Anything can happen if we force game 7.
