HOU ever win a home playoff game or are they still trying for their first?

 

[Bossman]

Grand slam and I'm off to bed.

10-2 the last two years coming into this game.

Kimber-el?

backed by price? 

####... why won’t sportsbook let me add to HOU +EV

####... why won’t sportsbook let me add to HOU +EV

because they're not in the business of losing money

 

[Bossman]

lol ... fans behind the plate giving Kimbrel the scarecrow

Kimbrel has open shoulder arm-whipping mechanics of a little league trainwreck right now  

 

[Bossman]

Home run wins it!

Right now? 

#selfcheck 

 

[Bossman]

Home run wins it!

Double play ends it!

 

[Doctor Detroit]

McCann ain’t gonna get it done. 

 

[Bossman]

Kimbrel gotta keep the guy on first from scoring ...

to keep his 18.0 era intact.

 

[Bossman]

borderline at best

Still can’t add to live bet on HOU :(  

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Great game. 

Baees loaded, bottom 9, 2 outs, and Stros have their best hitter coming up. Drama. 

 

[Bossman]

ouch.

 

[Zegras11]

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Terrific catch

Oh for ####s sake... ???

 

[Bossman]

Kimbrel with the well earned save.

 

[[icon]]

Should prob post that on the Instagrams

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

Terrific catch 

It took a lot of guts to dive knowing that if the ball gets by him, it's over.

Just going back through this thread tonight and I can’t think of a single reason why I would root against Boston.  Nope - no reason at all......

 

[cosjobs]

Yeah bringing in McCullers, who is known to be wild, with the bases loaded...also questionable. 

Its not so much that he's wild is that his curve is harder to catch than a Nierko knuckler

Doesn’t appear to me that the ball has crossed the wall yet but the fans are reaching out and in contact with Betts’ glove. 

I don’t think it’s a slam dunk either way. Certainly a case could be made on both sides.

Don’t know you. 

dont care if you want to project me having some fun for one game all year against an entire fan base. 

One day a Steelers fan guy puked on my shoe. 

#######s do ####### stuff 

Bigger #######s project ####### actions onto their neighbors. 

:Bourbon: 

cheers FFA 

 

[cosjobs]

McCann ain’t gonna get it done. 

Love the guy, but that roster spot should have been Stassey

That stadium was quieter than a Yankee stadium matinee before that play dude

other than cheating to win?

FYI: 

100000000% Boston’s undefeated road streak ends tomorrow night. Plus, I’ll be out and about during the game

So this thread should be much more of a  safespace tomorrow

I suffered through three one hundred loss seasons, watching and attending regularly. NOT fair weather.

You and 28 other people. 

I respect ya buddy. But that fan base in the stands tonight read worse than Fenway in 2005

? cmon now 

 

[cosjobs]

? cmon now 

That was a ####### homerun. His glove was clearly in the stands. Bull#### call that cost the game.

Mostly because they jack up post season ticket price so much, its not the normal fan base in the seats. The Astros have good fans, despite your small sample size assumption.

I Believe we can win three in a row, but its not exactly a comfortable belief

Much love cos... you know im a fan, GB.

I’m drunk and will generally keep my ### out of this thread or the baseball forum during games as I’m usually over at SOSH or out and about (because I’m an alcoholic with bad FOMO). 

You guys are a good team. I am beginning to feel like you might have run into a better team. Tomorrow will be a HUGE test. I don’t see how you don’t win, but we shall see. Cheers GB

Well I'VE never seen the Astros win at home...

and I've been watching baseball for a week and a half.

Thank goodness. Tired of Red Sox champagne celebrating in the visitors clubhouse.

About time they let their fans participate in the festivities. 

 

[parasaurolophus]

What a great game. I just wish the fans could have kept their hands to themselves. Now instead of talking about one of the greatest catches ever, we get to listen to Houston fans constantly give their biased opinions. 

I am pretty Springer is a cyborg. Just amazing what he is doing. 

I hope cora lets price go like 8 innings. Would be such an entertaining train wreck.

No. Please God No.

Horribly irresponsible usa today journalism doxxing the fan interference guy. 

Just awful. Any paper that publishes his name sucks balls. 

 

[Kraft...]

Can you explain why someone sitting in a seat they paid for who attempts to catch a ball hit directly at them is committing fan interference?

I feel sick about the game. Astros still could’ve won anyway. Great play by Benintindi to catch the last ball. They’re still good enough to win this. Just obviously have to have this one tonight and get it to game 6. Take it one at a time.
