If it makes you feel any better, the last time the road team won the first 2 games was 1999.

Sweep.
And this is why I don’t gamble on sports.

Nope, do you think they go with Gerrit Cole for Game 7 if necessary? I think I would.
But I think there’s a good chance Houston closes it out tomorrow night.
I guess we’ll see if Scherzer can go.

A Grienke/Urquidy 1-2 punch would make more sense, I think.
I’d be worried about any starter on short rest after what happened to Verlander when Hinch tried that earlier in the postseason, but if anyone could do it, I’d say Cole wearing an Astros uni for possibly the last time would be a good bet, especially at home.
Almost nothing in this World Series has been normal though, so who knows. I believe in our bats with anyone on the mound in a game seven at Minute Maid. This team is having fun again.

I’d say the Stros just lost this one on Altuve’s K in the 5th, but I don’t wanna jinx it.

I hate that rule on that play. Turner hit the dead center of the bag. I do know what else he’s supposed to do.
