I sat down for a day of football at 11 AM with two fervent wishes--a Baylor win and an Astros win. No other games mattered. A great day to be a Houstonian Baylor Graduate!

A garden gnome painted blue and orange should suffice. And be almost lifesize.

Pulled trigger on WS Game 1 tickets. So nervous! Think I have eaten my way down the concourse!

Game 1, and just the 5th inning.

Have faith, maybe a beer.

I'm staying up. Maybe we'll get creamed, but if we come back it will be all the sweeter.

* Correa seems to think the game is still worth playing - very nice catch! *

If worst comes to worst, we're no worse off than the start against the Yankees.

And Alvarez goes down again with runners in scoring position. Seen this before several times this post season.

Yup, disappointing for sure. But if he'd connected with that last swing, Houston would be winning right now.

Great game so far. Nats approach v Cole is better than any team I've seen in 2 years. Soto in particular.

Houston has hit the ball hard but has hit too many atom balls....

Going to the bottom of the 9th needing a run to keep playing... Bregman, Gurriell, Correa, Alvarez....

Nope... but Houston won't panic... they've been here before, and they know the Nats will get to see JV tomorrow

Remember Game 1 against the Yankees. Lost at home 7-0 then won the next 3.

I respect the Nationals, but I think our bats are going to continue to be a problem for them, and I also think Verlander and Cole have had their "bad games", so it's time for the Nationals to get some bad luck.

Astros are going to have to learn to hit this series with runners in scoring position. They cannot limp into another series victory against the Nats.
Your ideas are intriguing to me, and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

True
10-11 runners left on. Can't always depend on the home run.

I'm m ****ing angry. They made the best one we have look shockingly average. That's not good. It's also not good that all the pieces are in place for them to make history.

I'm just mad. ****ing sucks.

I'll be honest, I don't read or watch the news whatsoever. Unless it's sports, I don't pay any attention.

Up until our last half inning, our pitchers had might as well been wearing clown wigs.
