Nova Carmina Posted October 20, 2023 Author Share Posted October 20, 2023 It turns out that if you take the Phillies out of their bandbox, they're a bit diminished. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 The Astros are something else on the road, and vs. Texas they had won 6 of 7 as visitors vs the Rangers. This makes 8 of 9 road wins vs Texas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Astros have a losing record at home which is bizarre for a team of that caliber. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many guys do they still have on the team from 2017? Because I understand this is what the hatred is based on, no? Oh, and the rainbow uniforms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edhunter Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 As soon as the first guy singled last night you could see the fear in the pitcher’s eyes. Total choke job. And once again, Texas loses a chance to tie the game because of f***ing analytics. Two men on, nobody out, leadoff hitter at the plate, and he swings away. They deserve to lose now. Pathetic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as I saw Altuve walking up to the plate in the top of the 9th, Astros down two runs with two guys on, I turned the TV off. That little shit hitting a 3-run homer was a foregone conclusion and I had no need to watch it happen. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Is it me, or are these Fox announcers' praise for the Rangers a little begrudging? Seems like they're pulling for Houston. There are times where they sound like they don't know the Astros are down by 8 f**king runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
