Nah, game 6 will always be one of the worst. If they replace Nelson Cruz they win. Any competent manager does. Endy Chavez would have caught that ball. Still mind blowing 12 years later.

Okay Astros. Just win 1 f***ing home game. Just 1! We have 2 shots to do this. Make up for the ghosts of 2019.
Rangers killed themselves by stranding multiple runners with no outs in the 8th and 9th.
Framber scares the hell out of me for Sunday... It will be a ride...

Props to Pressly. Coming in to replace Abreu in the 8th with runners on and a hostile air and shutting the door was huge.. He made things interesting in the 9th but he got it done... You're up there with Wagner for one of our best relievers ever.. I would put him ahead just for his amazing post season numbers. I think he is 19 for 19 in the postseason now. Just wow.

Yeah Framber had back to back shitty games. What's funny is he thought he wasn't bad in game 2. Basically said Rangers got lucky with their hits. What I'm praying for is he puts up a 0 in the 1st, gains confidence. Houston scores in the bottom half of the 1st. Valdez goes on to pitch a gem and helps them clinch. Again confidence that carries over to the World Series.

That's what I'm hoping for as well. If he can just navigate through the first couple innings then settle in then we should be good... I would like this offense to show up at home as well to help him out.

Let's hope he doesn't need to make a play on a dribbler and is forced to throw someone out lol

Unreal game, especially the last 2-3 innings. That team just never stops. Clutch hits and plays are the norm.

Are you kidding me? Crazy.... Well, I hope that's not a bad omen because the Cards got eliminated by us the very next game ( thank you Oswalt).

I knew the Rangers were going to lose when they walked f***ing Jon Singleton...and they deserved to. That was among the most infuriated ive been watching baseball.
LeClerc's solid and done well thrown into a fire, but he's not a closer. On top of always having to come in and get extra outs the 8th and then come back in 9th, because Chapman can never get through an inning clean and stress free.
The bullpen as predicted would be a big part of their downfall.

I dont think Abreu meant to hit him but maybe they have some big brother crap in the dugouts and bullpen made them think this.
Astros reliever Bryan Abreu suspended 2 games for Adolis García HBP that sparked brawl in ALCS Game 5
García, Dusty Baker and two other players were also fined for the incident.

Looking at new tweets. Abreu may face the suspension this year (playoffs). Hearing has to be within 48 hours. Assuming ruling will be made the next day and if the Astros are still playing, it'll start then. But other reporters saying MLB can choose to reduce, delay until next season, or serve immediately.

Great . One of our best BP arms . My first reaction is f***ing BS but maybe they know something we don't? Still aggravating as hell.

Yeah I was being diplomatic lol. It's trash... No way was that intentional. Does the MLB think they can prove intent? But whatever. Not going to harp on this too much. . End this tomorrow.
I think he is but the appeal will happen within the next 48 hours and if he loses, he is out a potential game 7 or the start to the World Series. Im not sure how the MLB would know unless they have microphones in certain places, which maybe they do.

Once Framber is out he will be in. No other lefty on the Astros roster currently.
