World Series : Nationals vs Astros

[Four4Four]

Crazy ass series.


Road team poised to win every game.


And I thought HFA was the most important thing going into these playoffs.

Baseball and Hockey HFA don't really matter.

So if the Nats win Game 7 that would mean the road team won every game in the series? That's a record, right?

Already a record through 6 games. Never happened in MLB, NBA OR NHL

OTOH, I don't think it is that common for the home team to win every game. I know it happened in 1987.

In the WS, I think HFA is actually very important. HF decides which game is played.

Scherzer will give up some early runs before settling down and dominating. The Astros, if they do score early, make sure it's a 4 or 5 spot vs just 2 or 3 runs.

This should be good.

 

[jvett77]

Who wins tonight? Scherzer shows up. Nats win going away, 7-4. Homers by Soto, Zimmerman, and Cabrera. Greinke bombed in first 3 innings.

Let's play ball...

Who wants it more??

Starting at pitcher for the Nationals is Max Scherzer, representing the Missouri Tigers. For the Astros it's Zack Greinke who turned down a scholarship offer from Clemson to go straight to the professional ranks.

It's SEC Speed Vs. Rejected ACC Speed on the mound!

That's as good as Greinke has look.. that's a good sign

 

[rsw626]

Not to belittle Greinke or his disorder, he’s a good pitcher, and he actually seems like a good guy, but to me he always looks like he’s trying to figure out who farted.

REPEAT THIS EXCHANGE FOR EVERY INNING OF EVERY GAME......

Buck: "Juan Soto is only 20 years old."
Smoltz: "I used to play for the Braves in the World Series."

Buck: "Juan Soto is so young. He is 20 years old. That makes him young."
Smoltz: "Nobody that young should play, when I was in the World Series, nobody was that young."

Buck: "I have a copy of Soto's birth certificate, in case you wanted to know how old he was..."
Smoltz: "I can't imagine being that young. I was a nervous wreck at age 26 when I played in the World Series."

Buck: "As human being's, we keep track of the passage of time celebrating birthdays. Soto has celebrated 20 so far."
Smoltz: "Here is a picture of me in the World Series, when I played the World Series, I never was that young in the WS."

Buck: "I can spell the world Y-O-U-N-G. That would best describe Juan Soto who is 20."
Smoltz: "I cannot spell W-O-R-L-D S-E-R-I-E-S, but I did play in one before if you did not know it."

“Coming up the 21 year old Juan Soto!” Buck in the forts god damn inning.

Giants won a protest against the Cubs a few years back. Still lost the game, but won the protest.

Thanks. I vaguely remember an appeal being granted in recent years, but I couldn't even remember what sport let alone which teams were involved.

 

[Kace-1]

Twenty-One Year Old Juan Soto, or Juan Soto for short is at the plate.
