[mr.hockey4242]

Soxx need to end this tomorrow. Astros are too good to give them any life at all.

Well,

Physically impossible to end it tomorrow

I guess he thinks this series isn't a best of seven?

You got me, I was getting ahead of myself.

A

Greinke v. Pivetta tomorrow? HOU’s bullpen has been getting worked, so far, but I don’t think Greinke is able to go much more than a few innings these days.

A "few innings" from a starting pitcher would be an improvement for Houston.

It's almost like they know what pitches are coming.



(Wait, wha..... ????)

Are you sure about that?

Isn't there some sort of mercy rule. Like 5 grand slams and the series is over?

Really hoping the Red Sox offense can continue this hot streak they are on! Holy impressive!

Renfroe has kind of let me down this postseason. Maybe he can hit one out against Greinke.

Me too but as long as he continues to play defense and the others step up at the plate it will be fine

He and Xander aren’t hitting much, but the rest of the guys are certainly picking up the slack. Renfroe drew a couple walks and made a great catch to end the game last night, though. He’s still contributing.

Maybe some of you BoSox fans can help me out.

I seem to recall that at (or near maybe last week of regular season) the beginning of the playoffs, you could get 200-1 on the Sox winning the WS? If it wasn't 200-1 it was some other long odds. Do any of y'all remember the exact odds?

Then tell me you put a hundo down on it.

Honestly, if I saw those odds I wouldn't have bet it. I tbought we were guaranteed out via TB, and I still think Houston takes the ALCS.

I saw it and the odds were high enough for me to consider it, but I got busy with work and stuff and didn't think about it again.

I don’t recall that, but it sounds right. The Red Sox were a last place team last year...and for good reason. They were brutal.

Ok, I was .ore than a little off, it wS +1800 for Boston at the start of the playoffs
