Red Sox/MLB ASTROS WIN THE WORLD SERIES

[McGarnagle]

And Springer goes bridge to tie it

This is ridiculous. Am I the only one watching this?

 

[McGarnagle]

Dave Roberts going to Morrow is going to be his downfall. What a ridiculously bad decision.

 

[Pia8988]

Both pitchers and coaches have said the balls are different in the series. Seems to be having a very dramatic effect

 

[McGarnagle]

This is insane

 

[McGarnagle]

Y'all are missing the legit best game of baseball since game 6 of the 2011 World Series right now

Holy cow

 

[dabid]

Now both teams will stop scoring and the game won't end until 4:30 am est

 

[Nose Face Killah]

holy shit i completely forgot about this game :/

 

[Nose Face Killah]

Astros win!

 

[McGarnagle]

Great game. I like Dave Roberts but he completely blew it tonight with that bullpen management. Putting in Morrow who never should've been in the game, then working Jansen to death.

 

[Save By Thomas]

So beautiful to see the Dodgers lose.

Gotta admit, as a 40+ year Astros fan, that was very nerve-wracking. Should they go on and win the Series, I'll look back at it as a memorable game; but there were lots of tense moments. At this stage, I'd feel more at ease with Mitch 'Wild Thing' Williams than either Devenski or Giles.

It's amazing they've gotten to Jansen twice; I just hope they don't need to a third time.

I'm leaning toward believing the balls are livelier; there are great hitters on both teams, but this is abnormal.

Been asking around - I don't know if it was a special effect or not when Springer's home run hit the train track and a puff of smoke resulted. Looked cool either way!

I was reading about Bregman. He was drafted in the 29th round of the 2012 draft by the Red Sox, but he refused to sign unless he was drafted in the first round (his ranking slipped due to injury). He went to LSU instead, and the Astros drafted him 2nd overall in 2015.

He's been a major factor offensively and defensively in the Series.

That's it!!
I've watched that on loop: it never gets old!

I fell asleep in the recliner in the 8th when LA cut it to 11-9. I remember waking up, groggily seeing it said 12-12 (thinking WTF?), and then dozing off.

One of the best non Red Sox playoff games ever...well at least the eight innings I saw

 

[DKH]

Astros relievers petrified

Game plan - Verlander needs to win

If not

McCullers & Morton in game 7

 

[DKH]

Agree

One of best games ever - stayed up and watched because of storm

 

[BNHL]

The entire series has been mesmerizing. Last night's game reminded me of the Blue jays 15-14 win over Philly in the 93 series. Awesome.

 

[Fenway]

Game 5 in 14 minutes

 

[EverettMike]

I hate being old and needing sleep. In my 20s that never would have happened.

I don't think Kershaw is a choke artist, but his playoff issues are real. He just gets too amped up? Overthrows? And that makes him miss his spots?

 

[N o o d l e s]

This has been a hell of a series, but Roberts has made some really bad decisions.

 

[DKH]

I've never wanted a professional team other than Boston to win like Houston

 

[Fenway]

I've never wanted a professional team other than Boston to win like Houston

I know exactly what you mean.

In 2001 I was at peace with NYY winning the Series after what the city has been through but when Arizona came roaring back my tribal emotions took over.

I think it is safe to say that everybody living in Houston was affected by Harvey and many lost everything.

In any event I think this is going 7......

I`m not a baseball guy, the game broke my heart when the Expos moved on. I also tend to be an early to bed guy who never stays up specifically to watch baseball but I can`t get enough of this Astros team, they are a blast to watch and they seem to be a team who`s never really out of it nor do they seem to allow giving up leads get them down.

Fun game, wild game
