They're good
Yeah, the Cards played well in their division series, but the Nationals pitching shut them down in the LCS.GoldMind said:Aliceinbubbleland said:

Have to say that first inning was brutal last night, especially the dropped fly ball.
That which does not kill me, will try again and get nastier
I guess the question for the nationals is whether they will be well rested, or rusty, or both, for the World Series. Looks like they will be sitting for a while.

The 07 Rockies had to sit for 8 days...and we all know how that turned out

Astros got 0 runs in game 1 against NY, 3 in game 2, and now 4 in game 3 in the BigWormyApple.
If the bats get going to match the starting pitchers, the Astros will dominate straight through to the WS title.

I think you are correct. May it be so.Oldbear83 said:Chin up, GM.GoldMind said:Leonidas said:

Decision already made to postpone the game tonight until tomorrow. Seems a bit early to make that decision considering the reliability of weather forecasts. Hopefully, it actually does poor down tonight as I don't like the fact that it helps the Yankees pitchers get rest after being used up yesterday with an expected bullpen game tonight.
Verlander!!!
Same decision as was made for Game 7 of the 2011 WS (postponing it 6 hours before any rain was predicted to arrive). Of course Bud Selig's decision allowed the Cards to start Carpenter when he wouldn't have been available if the game had been played when originally scheduled.sahen said:

Game 4 will now be a redo of Game 1 with Greinke against Toaka... Game 5 a redo of Game 2, with Verlander against Paxton.

Time for Greinke to earn his money and show he was worth the price of the trade.

I suck at prediction, so I rarely try it, but I've had a feeling all day that Zack is going to pitch well tonight... hopefully we can score off of Tanaka

Ballgame. On to the next one.

You may be right.
The team who scores first between the Astros and Yankees in playoff games is 10-1.
Springer Dinger
Wasted opportunity following the home run.... 1st and 3rd with no one out and we get nothing more.... 3-1 Good Guys

For now, it's a good thing to lead the Yankees in their stadium.

What is up with the Strike Zone?
Bottom of the 1st if it's a nanometer off the plate its a ball, then Bottom of the third Greinke is getting pitches 6 inches inside called a strike....
if he'd had that zone in the first, the Yanks don't come close to a run.

Greinke throws a pitch 86 mph middle, middle to Judge and not only does he take it, but the plate umpire calls is a ball.... 99 eventually walks and ends Greinke's night.... 2 on 1 out in the bottom of the 5th
That was not a walk, it was a gift.JusHappy2BeHere said:

Time to gut it up and get the outs without letting the Yanks score.

Yep. Umpire will be red-faced over that one when he sees it.
Remember when Pressly couldn't be trusted as a reliever?
How do ya like him now?!?!?!

He stuck Encarnacion out twice in that last at bat. Umpire not getting any better. Got to fight through it.
Presley looked like himself for the first time since he took the ball off his knee two months ago
Carlos making a difference in this series.
Carlos is the difference right now.

Me of little faith in James sweated out the 6th

Pleasantly surprised. Good job by Greinke getting it under control.
Pretty impressive showing.
My reverse jynxes have worked so far...
