The Yankees getting clutch two out hits.
And the Astros are not. They had 1st and 2nd with two outs and Tanaka ended up getting the K to end that half of the inning.
It balances out. They were lucky as shit with some of their runs in games 1 and 2.hell even game 4And the Astros are not. They had 1st and 2nd with two outs and Tanaka ended up getting the K to end that half of the inning.
Yankee stadium is an intimidating presence once again.
Funny how none of these great offenses can hit in the bandbox during the postseason.
I'm starting to get a 1996 vibe from the Yankees, with this year the Dodgers playing the role of the Braves as the NL collusus they're never supposed to beat but do.
Funny how none of these great offenses can hit in the bandbox during the postseason. And Tanaka was lit up like a pinball machine by this same Astros team during Jeter night or whoever they were honoring that Sunday night in the regular season where he gave up eight runs in like an inning.

I'm confident that Verlander will send this to a game 7. Who wins that is anyone's guess at this point.
Houston gagging late in game 4 is the turning point. Either they'll fold in game 6 or fight back and possibly advance to the World Series.
Their best pitcher is starting in a series clincher.Befor anyone says how this series could and should be over based on the first two games.... coulda shoulda woulda.
That’s like saying the Oilers and Ducks Series should have ended in six games at EDM when Draisaitl had that monster game (hat trick, 5 points). Game 5 was what it was. No what-ifs.
Yes, the Yankees look good, they have been great at home, but..... they are going to have to win at Houston at some point.
They have merely held serve in this format.
Astros ironically did this in the 2004 NLCS: lose 2 on the road, win 3 at home.
