    Yeah, but did you hear them change face in the 9th? They were talking about comebacks after getting killed for 2 games in a 1960 series.

    Last two games pissed me off but this game is the opposite feeling. My superstition is I gotta watch the games on mute which based on the announcers seems like a huge win

    **** him the Astros won.

    Series tied and home field back to Houston, although I think they need to win tomorrow. Hopefully this is momentum and that 9th woke up their bats. Hats off to the bullpen. This was the game I was least confident in. They proved me wrong lol.

    Would you start Castro tomorrow. Not as good on defense but Maldonado's bat is non existent.

    That's why I never bad mouth this team, some managerial decisions yes, but the team they just never give up even in defeat in the post season.

    This umpire has been so inconsistent and perhaps that's why our offense took so long to finally get going ala Game 3 in the last series.

    He reminds of Drexler and his captain obvious takes. ‍

    Had a good feeling all game long after Javier came in and started shutting down the offense. I knew it was just a matter of time before the bats got going. Momentum back. But with Javier and a lot of their bullpen burned from today, they need more from Framber tomorrow. Getting back to Houston is huge, bug getting back to Houston up 3-2 would be better.

    HUGE game from our bullpen - Raley did well, Javier and Graveman shut them down - CLUTCH hitting by Castro.

    I want to see Castro starting tomorrow. Let’s keep this momentum. I’ll see you fellas at 4pm tomorrow, good night!

    I have no earthly idea how this weird f**king series is tied, but I'm glad it is.

    Castro earned his whole salary with one AB.

    Unfortunately Urquidy didn't become Charlie Morton Jr. this series, but Jason Castro did...

    why are the harping on that called ball for Castro? It was borderline call. they're speaking as if the entire ball was in the zone...
