    Rizzo beats you, tip your cap

    Dusty conceded this game, he wanted Judge to end it. Hopefully gets that back breaking contract.

    Yeah it was for the most part a dominating Astros weekend.

    Dusty still can’t grasp extra innings. This team wins in spite of Dusty.

    looks like our bullpen needs some help again

    The takeaway from this series is the Yanks can be had if you execute your pitches and keep them in the ballpark. The Astros will be ready for them in October.

    Anyone who thinks Baker is a competent manager is an idiot

    Dusty did the same thing in the Tampa Bay Series with Arozena or else the Astros would have gone to another WS.

    Basically with home game in Minute maid, the Astros should be okay. I think. I don't know the latest home park pitcher/batter values.

    What's worse? Blowing two games late and losing both on a walk off or losing 2 with 1 being a no hitter?

    Going into this series I would have been fine with a split. Now it's disappointing but whatever. I think the Yank were gifted 2 wins so they shouldn't be beating their chests.

    I don't want their best hitter to beat us. If someone lesser beat us, it wasn't meant to be

    So I’m switching back and forth between the baseball and golf. I switch to the Astros and I see that Judge is at bat and I immediately say why not just walk him?

    I don’t get it.

    Should have been a sweep. Pitching to Judge in that situation was just stupid. But the Astros and Yankees are clearly the class of the American.

    Disaster series.

    Led or tied for 34 of 36 innings and lost half the games.

    Yankees are far scarier than good, they're lucky too.

    I mean I hate it because I live in NYC. I want to shut them all up with at 6-0 record against new york teams and a no hitter.

    Now I can only do that against Mets fans.

    Getting a split on the road with the "best team in baseball" is ok I guess.

    I'd rather lose regular season games than playoff games. As heartbreaking as the two losses are, they are not playoffs.

    Dominated them for 4 days

    Dusty worked that for a split
