Series Thread: ALCS: New York Yankees vs Houston Astros

Try living here. Ugh

Where?

Where?

DC area, Northern Virginia.

I hate there fans here. There are some hardcore diehards, but those IMO are few and far between. All season long not a peep from them, the about a week ago, all of the sudden, they came out of the woodwork. I always ask them where were they a few years ago when they sucked?

Unless the weather forecast changes, Wed game seems like it is in jeopardy if it remains a night game.

Wednesday going to be a nasty rainy PM soaking in NYC.

Yankee Stadium (top), and Connie Mack Stadium (bottom), during their Ballantine years

Used to go to Connie Mack stadium in the 1950’s and I remember Ballantine. You had a hard time parking there. They had that big steel wall in right field and columns holding the roof up which you never wanted to be seated behind. I usually sat in the outfield seats with my dad. I can still name the entire starting lineup for the Phillies from 1958, and a few pitchers. I believe last time I checked, there is now a city park where the stadium once stood.

Probably. A guy I work with looked at taking his daughter. Cheapest ticket was about $130, in the nosebleeds.

I think the yanks will bounce back in game 3. they have bounced back all year so this wont be anything new for the yanks

 

[bksballer89]

The days of needing 4 starters for a best of 7 series is coming to an end.

About to be your 3 starters games 1-3, bullpen day in game 4, and then back to your top 3 starters for games 5-7

Bullpen day: Yanks, Astros to use pens in Game 4

"They never made those calls when I was in New England"
