Is there a run rule in place for post season games. It seems like 10 after seven innings should be a sufficient lead to convince everyone. It sure has me convinced. The Diamondbacks left their game in Arizona.

On August 5th, 2001, the Cleveland Indians came back from a 12-run deficit to beat the Seattle Mariners 15-14 in extra innings.

Not tonight. Both the Diamondbacks and the Astros staring down 0 and 2 start. Not good!

After watching all the teams, I'm betting on the Phillies

If they could get some base runners in front of all those home runs, nobody is going to beat them.

Schwarber has been hot.

Astros just won game three.

Astros just won game three.

Hate them.

 

[olbriar]

Meee toooo! I was hoping for a sweep I dislike them so.

 

[olbriar]

Game 3 between the Phillies and Diamondbacks airs at 5 ET on TBS. Game 4 between Astros and the Rangers airs at 8 ET on FS1. I hope the games are more fun to watch than they have been so far.
I'll be recording the late game and watching the NFL game. I'll watch it tomorrow if it's a close game.

I want Houston to lose soo bad........... bunch of cheaters.

 

[ocnbrze]

i want it to be arizona vs houston.

i hate the phillies, but i hate the cheaters even more........wait did i just repeat myself?????

i want houston in the world series so that i have an invested interest in the world series and will probably watch it.

an arizona or phillies vs texas would just be to boring to hold my attention.

 

[olbriar]

Texas deserved to lose that game. Give up a three run homer by Altuve in the top of the 9th to fall behind a run was bad. Then in the bottom of the 9th they had runners of first and second with one out. Batter hits a fly to the warning track. The guy on second stands watching halfway between 2nd and 3rd has to go back to 2nd. With one out, you have those base runners grab the next bag on such a hit. Duh... It might not have made a difference but there is always the chance of a wild pitch and having 1st vacant is always good. Dumb baseball!

 

[olbriar]

The Diamondbacks came from behind late to win game 4 against the Phillies to even the series at two wins each.

 

[olbriar]

The Ranger won the ALCS over the Astros in a convincing manner in game 7. Adolis Garcia gets the MVP with his record setting 15 RBIs in the series. Who wins game 7 tonight? I'm pulling for the Diamondbacks only because my two oldest daughters used to live in Az and I guessed them playing the Rangers before the championship series started.

 

[olbriar]

3-2 after 6 Az. Good game to watch!

 

[ocnbrze]

thank god the cheaters did not make it in.

 

[olbriar]

Diamondbacks win 4-2 and will see the Rangers is the series

My wife's relatives in Arizona were going crazy.

My wife's relatives in Arizona were going crazy.

I bet they were. I sure my daughter and son-in-law are going nuts too. They live in California now.

Still lots of talk about the MLB expanding from 30 teams to 32 teams:

You hear about the Oakland Ballers, they will be replacing the A's when they go to Vegas ?

I'm sorry but that's a horrible name for a Baseball team.
