Look at the little MVP continue to hammer the first pitch, ain't it sexy?
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

I can't believe Altuve scored on that, I was absolutely certain it would be 1st and 3rd, and when I saw him going for it I was SURE he'd be thrown out...and he should have been.

Holy crap what an ending to an amazing game.

"The Yankees fought all the way", lol.

So did the Astros?

Haven't seen anyone hit this well since Ichiro. Best pure hitter in the game right now. MVP for sure.

I'm kind of at a loss for words after seeing that finish.

It's like, take how devastating the Pujols HR against Lidge was back in 2005, but turn it around the other way in our favor.

What an awesome, awesome win!

Still a long, tough series ahead, but holy crap what a great game and a great win.

No they didn’t! It’s not fair: Altuve is too small!

I swear Cody Bellinger is the most protected player in this league.
