I was very impressed with the Astros beating the Chicago White Sox (6 - 1) ..... I haven't seen Houston play much this year, they looked quite strong.

No surprize to see Tampa Bay shut-out the Boston Red Sox (5 - 0)...... the Rays appear to me as the team to win the AL

Born in La. Raised in La. Now live on the border in the desert lmfao. Dodger blood thru and thru in this house since birth. Fuck the giants. I want a sweep. They really impressed the fuck outta me with their no name roster. Made big moves this year. Big name changes.
posey came out a slump. Bullpin stepped up. But They copied the fucking dodgers strategy

however not illegal. We still got Mookie Jt and trea to really get the ball moving. And pitching is fucking untouchable. Maxxy pad won’t be back till game 3. Game 4 if needed.
but Chris Taylor stepping up big So we’ll see how we run this series. I’m going for the astros cheating asses to make the chip. So we can dismantle everything about them. Take back 2 trophy’s is one game

The Red Sox laid a shit-kicking on the Rays (14 - 6), looks like it may be a closer battle than I thought.

The Astros are looking really good, as they go on to win their second game over the White Sox (4 - 9).

The Brewers and Braves game was rather boring until the 7th when Milwaukee was able to score a couple, then Atlanta made a good effort to come back but fell short with only a single run (1 - 2).

Then so disappointed with the LA Dodgers as they just couldn't get their shit together over the SF Giants. (0 - 4).

These teams finished top two in the MLB regular season but neither really looked that great last night....this could turn out to be quite the battle.

They didn’t disappoint game 1. They got outplayed and out pitched. Ima dodger fanatic. Bleed blue.
But that game 1. Was a test of each other. And giants just outsmarted and picked up the pace. Dodger couldn capitalize with runners in scoring position. But that happens.

last nights game gave us homefield back (as long as we win both ) and what the dodger did is what they are known for. Studying the loss and putting thier bats to work. They played small baseball when the giants were expecting a home run derby Good ol dave roberts

Let’s go dodgers!

I didn't get to watch the Tampa Bay at Boston game but I'm surprized that the Red Sox beat the Rays (4 - 6) to take the lead in the series.

I did get to watch Houston at Chicago and was impressed with the White Sox who gave a decent beating to the Astros (6 - 12).

I was thinking the Astros were going to sweep the series but we now have a battle to watch, just like the other AL/NLDS games.

Scherzer on the mound for the dodgers today. Had a rough ending of the season. And not the greatest (but not the worst) performance against the cards. Hopefully he can put 0s across the board while our offense puts them bats to work again. No need for a slugfest in this crazy ass wind

I don't mind the Atlanta Braves, just hate their fans when they do that annoying native American chat, which is disrespective to our first nations people.

So to say the least, I was not happy to see them beat the Brewers ( 0 - 3).

Then was quite surprized to see the Red Sox eliminate the Rays (5 - 6) .......good for Boston, they won fair and square.

The Astro vs White Sox game was postponed due to rain....will be played today.

The Dodgers looked rather flat as they couldn't even get a single run....and that's all it took for the Giants to win the game (1 - 0).

Did you watch the game?
Dodgers were not flat in any way at all. When you have 55mph winds, It’s hard to throw pitch or hit anything. Giants did what the better teams do. They capitalized on the one opportunity and caught a dead spell in the wind. Banged one out. Dodgers were robbed of 3 runs due to wind. Giants were not robbed of any. Let’s see how today goes.

c mon blue!

The Astros kicked ass to eliminate the White Sox (10 - 1)

Was really disappointed to see the Brewers lose the series to the Braves - was a close battle (4 - 5)

The Dodgers dominated the game (2 - 7) but was a bit worried in the 3rd when they left the base loaded, but nevertheless they played consistently strong throughout the entire game to force a game 5 on Thursday in San Francisco.

And wouldn call it dominating. Giants had many hits. And many great plays. They just were not the better team last night. Dodgers got a couple of extra rbi due to mookies home run and will smiths 2 run shot as well. Bats were at work in Both side tho. The only difference was dodgers more aggressive base running and stand out bull pin.

this series really cannot be predicted

But. Let’s go blue!!!!

Why do you post with the losing score first? Is that your country or something?
Posted in the order of the games played/completed with visiting team first, home team second.....that's the way it's done in every league including the MLB

Why do you try to contradict every post I make?

Go Astros! /bangstrashcan The Sox pitcher that insinuated they were still cheating should have just stfu tbh. The last HR from Altuve was a big FU HR. The series with the Red Sox will be interesting considering Cora was one of the masterminds of sign stealing scandal. (along with Beltran who is with the Mets now) It was good taking it to the Sox (I lived in Chicago in 05' where Cubs fans became Sox fans mysteriously.) It was also good beating LaRussa who we lost to way to many times in the NL.

LaRussa over reacted to the hit batter....I don't think it was an intentional hit, LaRussa was just showboating.

Totally overreacted. They hit Altuve one of his first AB of the game.. but Astros wait until 3-2 count when they're up 7-1 to get revenge? lol Him and Dusty still have some angst after all these years haha

No contradiction lmfao. I’m just adding what you missed. I pay close attention to detail added to my 22 years of experience on the field and my continued obsession. I LOVE YOUR POST lol.
But when a game is finalized. Winning score is displayed first. Not losing. Your referring to teams @ played. That’s during and or before the finalized score.
But once again. I love the thread. Sorry you took offense to anything I said. I’m just posting detailed info on the dodger game.
