    That's fine. Then we can have Raley fake an injury in game #6 and McCullers come in to finish off the game as a replacement ;)

    Perhaps the next time they load the bases they’ll just pull an Obi-Wan

    In the morning, I went shopping at Kroger's and saw a lot of Astros gear despite a tough loss. Then during Halloween, it was very busy passing out candy before the game. When it was down 4 runs, trick or treaters were back. All of a sudden the game changed with Marvin G, no more trick-or treaters for the rest of the night. So happy for Houstonians.

    The problem with Yordan is when he is at DH, he stays in the dugout with energy. I think a lot of his energy is down when he plays OF especially in the cold where he is not used to it. If Yordan plays OF at a National League park, it is usually during the summer, warm temperature.

    The giving up grand slams to wear them out strategy works again!

    The Astros don’t have to win two games.

    They just have to win one game. Then, just win ONE game.

    So it’s really just one game.

    Kudos to the Astros for gutting this one out and getting the series back to MMP on Tuesday. I was so pissed after the grand slam that I started following only online and the offense started hitting and scoring runs, so I did that the rest of the game.

    Did we win? No really. I stayed watching the Cowboys and Rockets and keeping up with the game thru the comments.
    Glad there will be November baseball. Sad that the rain helped chill out the bats for both teams in game 3 and things unraveled in game 4 after bringing in Raley out of all people. But here were are


    Now I'm going to go watch what I missed.

    Yeah I don’t see how you can pitch Garcia G6! Has to be Urquidy and Odorizzi in some manner, hope together they can get you 5-6 solid innings. Obviously Javier available as well. That should be enough to string something together.

    Your son hasn’t been to any of those losses, so he might turn out to be good luck. Also, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience for him. Do it.

    Lol I love it.

    "Braves gotta win game 6 because if it gets to game 7, anything can happen."

    Going to be hearing that for the next day. I hope it gets them a little jittery,

    He could go with his mom lol.....or if team looks like they're in trouble or if Astros have a lead late, go home early. Be like, sorry son. Got to go now. You went to a game. You never said for the entire game.
