    Hank Greenberg was basically Jimmie Foxx. Missed a lot of time serving his country and became an excellent executive in baseball.

    Im not sure if this is the sweep I want the most in my life so far.

    Let the baseball gods decide.

    I’m already over the moon … but a sweep of the ultimate mercenary team, backed by the worst fans in baseball, as a tonic to all the shitty injury news would be among the most satisfying regular season wins ever.

    ... that managed to score 6 runs. Yeah, I know 6 is way less than 18, so Gotta Go Joe Espada will be lucky to survive the night.

    Pirates can’t score a run in 2 games. Can’t win if you can’t score.

    I met a Dodgers fan in La at the game 2 years ago, we became friends. Basically **** talk on games.

    He was like, you guys are lucky shohei didn’t pitch longer and dodgers are so injured.

    lol. I told him check our lineup, we have the most injuries in baseball. Astros also own Shohei!

    I want that sweep.

    Record since the series-splitting walkoff in Sacramento...

    11-3

    Mostly vs MLB's best teams

    Well said, I’m with you on this, the only thing better then a sweep today would be if Joe Kelly’s limp-wristed cowardly candy-ass was sitting in the dugout. You know he’s watching this series…..

    I like to watch Quick Pitch on MLB Network after a great win.

    They played some bizarre (and creepy if you ask me) birthday song homage to Ohtani leading off the highlights. We don't even do that for the anointed one Aaron Judge. Seriously wtf is going on?

    The dude should be banned from baseball for life for betting on it, but that's a story for another day.
