    Dodgers are doing what the Astros did last night, hitting the ball right at people and stranding base runners.

    Really hoping LMJ makes it to the 5th at least, but he's playing russian roulette.

    The LOB numbers are finally going the opposite way they have been all series.

    LMJ is quite the escape artist so far. Hope he can settle down

    Just give us 4 maybe 5 from lance and bring in Morton.

    He just needs to calm down.

    Astros have been lucky through 2.

    Probably. I think we hope he gets through 4, but would settle for 3. I'd then go to Morton for 3-4. Peacock for the close.

    I sure hope so. If he can settle in he could go a while. But at the first sign of trouble going forward they may have to pull him.

    Now it's time for Altuve and Correa to do something. They're hitless since returning to LA(I think).

    3 hit batters. He too amped up. McCann need to keep talking to him. He has the stuff to do it.

    If you want to be THE ONE you have to dodge bullets. That inning could have been disastrous.

    They've been cruel to the Astros this World Series. There's even a Statcast article on the MLB website talking about how unlucky the Astros have been with hard hit balls that went straight to opposing players. So, maybe, we're getting a little of that back this game. I'll take it.

    Speed the game up. I'm averaging 1.5 beers per inning.

    It certainly does take some luck to win a championship, that much is true.
