some guy was suggesting the astros were still doing something weird. i didn't hear any more than that though.
i'd be fine with anybody as long as it goes 7 games bottom of ninth walk off homer. lol

some cities support it more than others but it's nowhere near as popular as other major sports (hockey, football, baseball. basketball)

LA Dodgers beat the Giants 2 - 1 to advance to the National League playoffs to battle the Atlanta Braves.
The Dodgers finish the regular season with 106 points (2nd to the Giants' 107 points) and the Braves finished with 88 points (the lowest of all MLB playoff teams), yet the Braves get home advantage because they were the NL East division champions and the Dodgers were a wild card.
Doesn't seem fair to me, but those are the rules.....but it don't matter much as the Dodgers will prevail.
The American League finals start today with the Boston Red Sox playing the Houston Astros....this should be a very exciting series.

it’s the way the playoff system works. And they are going to be looking at adjusting it because of this year. Even though every team is out to beat eachother. Divisions represent each pennant. Giants won the division. Dodgers were a game shy of a tie, 2 away of winning. Very rare 2 teams in the same pennant do that well let alone division. So I that’s prolly why the Wild card system is the way it is. Kinda sucks because the dodgers have to be tired. All while the braves are just chilling getting plenty of rest.
well. Let’s hope they can pull thru one more series. If not. They def fought hard

The Red Sox were quite impressive with their 9 - 5 victory over the Astros.
I was thinking that Houston was going sweep this series but I was clearly wrong as Boston proved they have a decent chance of winning the ALCS.
Very surprized that the Braves won the opening game in NLCS....Dodger played good but obviously not good enough.

Braves fought hard. They got lucky with the wild pitch. But non the less. Played good ball.
plus the extra rest and being at home helped I’m sure.
However. Dodgers started the bull pin and rotated pitching every 4 outs. That was impressive only allowing 2 earned runs.
hopefully with max starting tonight. We’ll even it up. Who knows? Great game last night.

Yes they do. That was one hell of a game and some very questionable decisions on managements behave.
They were down 3 games to 1 Last year and came back to win 4 games to 3. Against the same team at that. We will see what they pack for tomorrows game in LA. Maybe they can pick all three home games ina row. That would turn the table

I'll say....the Red Sox picked a good time to start peaking....the Astros need to win the next game or they are in a deep hole.
Never would have guessed a 12 -3 ass whooping

The Dodgers managed to secure the 6 - 5 win over the Braves in the bottom of the 8th by scoring 4 runs.....they now need to win today's home game to tie the NLCS.
The Astros came alive with a decisive 9 - 2 win over the Red Sox to tie the ALCS....game 5 will be played today in Boston
