Series Thread: ALCS: New York Yankees vs Houston Astros

If a baseball fan from the 1950's got transported to today, he would be surprised about how great of a picture you can get on a television. He would also laugh about all the pitching changes. What else would he say?

Who the hell are the Houston Astros?

Who the hell are the Houston Astros?

Also, what is a DH?

 

[Robotech]

Geez, the Astros catcher should be seeing a doctor right now.

Liked for solid fandom

 

[bksballer89]

And now another one lol.

Ridiculous

 

[obxyankeefan]

Horrible missed call by the umps

And then a horrible make up call.

 

[bksballer89]

Dude barely been calling anything on the corners outside the strike zone but he calls that? WAYYYY Outside

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Ump corrects a major blunder with another bad call

At least neither team can complain now

 

[bksballer89]

And then a horrible make up call.

That was ridiculous. Not even close.

Yes, if our time traveler spent enough time here, he would wonder how American politics became such a clown show.

 

[obxyankeefan]

It was close enough if he had been calling the outside all night MOTHER FUCKER but he hadn't.

Wow.
Blue.
Get a clue.

2 pitches in a row.
1st one was a swinging strike 3...called a ball.
2nd one was a ball away...called a strike 3 looking.

Elementary,Watson.

Correa walks it off with a leadoff blast in the 11th.

1-1 heading to the Bronx.

It was only a foot outside. Give him a break.

 

[broncosmitty]

Looked like a strike to me...

Boone need to not have such a quick hook with his starters because you end up in a situation like this. With 3 straight games coming up starting tuesday, he's going to trust his starters more. Can't pull your starters at the first sign of trouble with 3 straight games coming up.

No need for JA Happ to be pitching in the 11th inning of a game where the team only allowed 2 runs.

Correa is clutch. The universe's answer to balance out the existence of Clayton Kershaw.
