    Verlander before his start being told his outfield corners will be Brantey and Alvarez for game one of the WS.

    I love the food from Texas. I've been most places and my favorite food town is still Houston............ but when it comes to pizza.... well the pizza in Houston is **** compared to the pizza in Chicago. The damn truck stop pizza in Chicago is better than sit down pizza in Houston.

    Yeah, I immediately flashed to, welp- I still want this lineup construction for a WS game in LA- but I sure do hope that they don't hit a ball out of the infield on a line (Springer in CF obviously).

    Greinke in game 3 at the 9 hole might be the best lineup ever to play in a national league park in the history of the WS.

    Because he would be Honus Wagner if he hadn't been stuck in Cuba.

    Even Springer in CF had his moment in the WS...he kinda made up for it though

    Man, defense is ass today. I have to imagine it's been a long stretch and they are tired.

    First inning- Altuve ranged into the hole and dropped a ball, picked it up and barely got the guy. I can't adequately capture the failure of Brantley on a play in RF. Then Bregman tried to throw the ball away but Yuli saved him.

    Start of the second and Correa threw a shitty sinker to Yuli that didn't even hit the dirt, so you'd expect him to catch it, but he didn't.

    Yikes. hope the offense brings the big sticks b/c the leather is fugly right now.

    And just as I hit post Correa does good getting to a duck snort, the pale hoser fell down, but Bregman can't catch the ball and get the tag down.
    They look like walking zombies.

    Now after that last bit by Miley on the suicide squeeze I believe they are just ****ing with me.
    Wow. This is why you shouldn't play 3 baseball games in 24 hours at the professional level (or really any level).
