That was nice.
That is what its all about!

Glad I'm not a betting guy, can't believe that both the Cardinals and the Nationals made it to the NLCS. Dodgers loss last night must've been crushing for LA fans, especially after the regular season dominance. Can't wait to watch the Astros-Rays matchup tonight! Only team that's cruising so far has been the Yankees.

Love the cap and watch. Go Yankees. There’s nothing like playoff baseball in the Bronx. I’ll be going to game 4 at the stadium against the Astros.

Astros-Nationals would be a refreshing matchup.

Yes, I'll take the split - but losing game two after tasting being up 2-0 was a heartbreaker. Cole going to be tough today, hope the Yanks are on their A game. Let's go Yankees!

Hmm...Yankees seem to be faltering. How can that be? LOL right back at you. Shades of the 2017 ALCS?

And as I said, the Twins had the best record at the time..note I didn't expect it continue.

My brother just told me if the Astros go on and win it all this year. And they stay on a 2 title every three years trajectory for the next 5 decades. They would match the Yankees in titles in 2069.

I believe the Nationals are extremely dangerous

The Astro players seem like class acts.
Yankee fans throwing things at the opposing players.
Not class.
Go Astros!!

I feel like I am a class act. And I am a Yankee fan living in Houston. It’s only baseball.

Yankees mentally quit on the game last night after the Correa HR.

Sad to see CC go out like that though.

Series was over after Boone pulled Chad Green in game 2 and Otto Gabe up the HR the next pitch. Yankees were in control. Feels like Boone out managed himself in game 2. Changed everything.
