Now I can go back to hating you all again.
Gotta pull for us over the Dodgers though, dammit.
Only reason you’re getting a sympathy vote from me is my Father-In-Law. Otherwise my large and demeaning collection of “Astros Suck” memes would be in full bloom.
2011 still haunts me.

Great to see my Dodgers win the pennant.
Great to see the Astros climb out of the doldrums and now win the pennant in a year like this.
Of course that's where all the niceness stops.
The city of Los Angeles needs a World Series...like yesterday.
Cannot wait for Tuesday.

When Dallas Keuchel's junk isn't put where it belongs, bad things happen.
Kershaw looked terrific.
Good matchup tonight.

Thought he pitched pretty well other than a couple mistakes. It was going to be tough to win against Kershaw anyways, hoping they can get something going tonight with Verlander on the mound.
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.

Re: 2017 Postseason Thread
That was a fantastic win last night. So many clutch performances throughout the Astros squad.
Tonight should be important to see how/if the Dodgers respond. Right now their bullpen looks a bit rattled, like they just are not used to seeing anyone not cower before them.
The Astros need to start bringing some of those stranded runners home.

Cable and internet have been out since about 8pm last night. Had to follow the game on my phone.
Very happy they won but I am super pissed with Suddenlink right now. They are such a terrible service. Stupid evil taint muffins.

Feel like both teams have made plenty of mistakes in this game.

Completely exhausted, but totally worth it! Now let’s hope that Verlander can finish this off!

This series reminds me of the '91 Twins vs Braves. Epic games, huge mistakes, clutch hits over and over from both teams.

I didn't follow this season too closely, but the Dodgers ought to have a better pitching rotation than that. Game 7 and Darvish is your starter?
