    Last team to blow a 5+ lead was the Giants managed by Baker.

    Yep, and it’s an uphill climb facing Wheeler, but it must be done

    Win it for Dusty needs to be banned. Win it for the players or the City but no more win it for Dusty.

    if the Astros, Rockets, or Texans win it all maybe we can buy a shirt or hat.. maybe go to a parade or watch it on TV. Talk **** to your other friends who aren't professional athletes.. all for the high blood pressure and anxiety. lol.

    I think there was talk of Diaz playing left field tomorrow, so technically Yordan would DH in Game 2. But at this point, Dusty has to go with Hensley. We've been very lucky so far winning all these games getting nothing from Altuve, little from Yordan, and only a sac fly RBI out of the DH spot. For God's sake, Tucker finally showed up big and the Astros still couldn't win thanks to those same spots in the lineup giving us zero production.

    Since Bregman's walk off win in Game 5 in 2017, Astros are 1-7 at home in the World Series.

    What is it about home games in the WS? Enough to make a man wanna drink...

    I’m an idiot. Obviously game 7 against the Nationals. Tried to erase that one.

    And? We won 7 straight. They aren't a hotter team than us. Verlander has given up 13 er and the rest of the staff 13. That was a signature Verlander choke job.

    1. I don't want to see Mancini, again, ever.
    2. Not sure I want to see Verlander again in this series.
    3. Alvarez was swinging at pitches in the dirt! Seriously.
    4. The Astros had chances, didn't capitalize.
    5. It is a SEVEN game series.

    Genuiely curious if he left the SP in too long in that game too. If so, we'll know he doesn't learn from past mistakes.

    I mean anyone counting out the Astros is a fool at this point. They've come down from worse.
