    Framber was cheating. He knew which pitch was coming each time

    If Stros win in 5, it will repeat 6ers vs Lakers

    Iverson steps over Lue in Game 1, then the favorites sweep

    Watching the game live I saw four missed calls

    They were all balls called strikes and they were all Astros favor

    Stros probably still win

    And the ump was great overall

    It also repeats Orioles/Phillies 1983, if you wanna stay in the same sport.

    After reading about Framber’s dad finally getting to see him pitch live last night, and how that motivated him, I’m wondering…..

    Are Yordan’s folks still attending games?

    I think Diaz is fighting an injury rn. He's proven plenty capable in the past, and even though I don't have much confidence in him, I have way more confidence in him than Mancini. I wish Mancini would just get lucky and run into 1, but even at that, that's the best case scenario and you aren't gonna get that twice.

    Hensley can probably provide the best at bats, which is why he should get a crack, but zero chance of this happening outside of maybe a pinch hit appearance. Someone should probably tell Dusty they don't play by NL rules anymore so he doesn't try to sub in someone for his pitcher.

    I believe we'd be up 2-0 if not for that one in a quadrillion catch in game 1 by the meme guy Castellanos.

    Eagles undefeated. Phillies undefeated at home in playoffs. Offense better show up.

    It's going to be tough, we won't be able to move the foul pole like we did in Houston.

    "Wheeler is lined up to start Game 6 in Philly (if necessary), and his early fastball readings may be a tell as to whether he's back to Elite Playoff Demigod mode or "merely" the very good starting pitcher he was during the regular season."

    Apparently we also have the advantage that Philadelphia doesn't know where Game 6 would be played.

    If you posted this on social media I guarantee 1000 people would blow up before finishing reading it.

    The amount of people angry about Maldonado's bat is something to behold.
