    Red Sox have momentum by not allowing a run in the 9th...

    I have no faith in Seattluck not being lucky.

    They've had a rabbit's foot twice within a week during their final out/strike. Both games should've been L's.

    Easy.... they *know* a position player is pitching.

    The real pitchers aren't mixing little league pitches with their 90+ wicked s***.

    Good one

    They definitely have had some luck with wins, especially that one against Detroit. But their pitching has been really good against the Mets, and Arozarena and Turner additions have given them some timely hitting.

    Looking again like every team the Astros lose to in the postseason will *not* win a playoff round the following season(s).

    Fake a** champions. All of them.

    Among other things,, Mariners are lucky Jabreu will play in most of the head-to-head matchups.

    And the error that started the mini-rally in the 6th and pushed Hunter Brown out of the game. Bad game by hm.

    Wildcard watch:

    Astros pass the Red Sox

    Only 3 games behind the Twins, within 2 1/2 of the Royals

    Rangers 7 1/2 back and are now pretty much done.

    Astros 50-31 in their last 81 games.

    That's an on pace of a 100 win season.
