    Lots of fun created. Good time.

    BUT the pitcher wildness in the two most important games of the year was scary. And that was from our playoff tested guys. That can't happen. It did. Thought we were beyond that.

    Remember when Dusty said Chas is no Julio but then Julio just went 0-4 with 4 Ks in the biggest game of the year?

    Game 3 produced 55+ pages of posts and 40 pages from the 4th inning on.

    Mariners could easily win 3 of 4 vs Arlington. Rangers are a .500 team on the road --- but, Stros must handle their business too.

    Would yall take Mariners winning 3 right now, and trust the Astros sweep Arizona?

    Magic number for the WC is 3.

    Maybe that is why they stink at home. Not enough booing and heckling by the Houston crowd!!!

    Holy table side guacamole with a spicy queso drizzle!!!! Good morning, Houston Astros!

    I was busy falling in love last night and didn't catch the game, but looks like the boys got on fine without me! Maybe I should do that every night...

    If Mariners take 3 of 4, Houston doesn't need to sweep Arizona. They just need to take 2 of 3. That's why the Astros have a significant edge. Houston basically just needs to lose the same number of games as Seattle to make the playoffs at this point, and Seattle has one more game to play then the Astros, so they have one more chance to add a loss.

    If the Astros just win the series with Arizona, they're probably in. But they haven't done much winning lately, so I'm assuming nothing. They need to take care of business versus the DBacks.

    Probably why they won. Make sure to fall in love again on Friday and Saturday.

    Bottle that feeling up because I know you. First walk allowed in the D-Backs series and you’ll be texting me that the season is over. :p

    Well... Got any plans? :}

    I'm, like, so super gay for the Astros that I'm thinking we should throw ourselves a little parade downtown or something. What say y'all?

    Mariners are saying Neris used some slur with Julio. Hope he isn’t suspended

    Maybe I wasn’t clear… if Seattle takes at least 3 of 4 and Astros sweep, Houston wins the division. That’s why I posed the question.

    Magic number is 3 for the WC regardless.

    I'm already working up some possible retortations:

    1) Being that baseball is our greatest pastime and all, the only language recognized by the league is 'Merican. Read the bible.

    2) Being that Latino is an entirely different culture and all, any punitive measures would be demonstrably racist and subject to a canceling mas picante.

    3) Being that Hector was clearly flirting with Julio and all, any punitive action would be demonstrably homophobic and subject to a canceling most flaming.

    The defense rests.

    I think if Seattle takes 3 out of 4, we would win the division by winning out.

    Ahhh. Yeah, I didn't get that was the point you were making. But yeah, that would be an amazing outcome and is totally in the realm of possibilities if Houston can actually play to their potential.

    Servass is going to be fired when Seattle don't make playoffs. I can't stand his ass.

    Time is a construct...

    ...and I'm sorry, mang, I guess I just care too much. We all gotta do our part to get us across the finish line - to stay ahead of the game.

    Virtue signaling is the new sign stealing.
