Gameday Thread: WS : Nationals @ Astros Game 6 - 10-29-2019

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

HOUSTON -- The home-field edge has been oddly nonexistent in this World Series, but try telling that to a Houston team returning to Minute Maid Park just a win away from a championship. The Astros have got that feeling and the Nationals are reeling after everything was upended at Nationals Park over the weekend.

Game 6 tonight -- Justin Verlander vs. Stephen Strasburg -- will be a test of just how deep this road-tested title bout can go. If the Nats can somehow humble Houston and extend this thing to a glorious Game 7 on Wednesday night, it will mark the first time the road team has won the first six games of a Series since ... ever.

Scherzer is a go if there is a game 7....

Fun Fact... the Dodgers traded Yordan Alvarez to the Astros for Josh Fields a couple years ago.

Funner fact - Josh Field lost the dodgers a world series game against the astros a year after the trade.

355 foot no doubt home run.  

Trout would hit a few more if he played half of his games in that park

A decade ago, I got my brother some framed stills from that movie for Christmas, as it was a favorite of ours when we were in our early 20s. He kept them on his wall at work. When he passed away this spring, the only thing I asked to have of his were those movie stills.

Robles would be better off going up there with a blindfold

Bregman is a BIG douche. 

I think the writers are going to say F that guy. He already came across as cocky, but that bat stunt even made Altuve cringe.

The voting takes place before the postseason. (Unless you mean they've already said F that guy.)

what did Napoli say about Soto?

[Jay]

Not to be out-douched, Soto carried his bat down to first base.

 

[T.G.]

Sotober!

When I tell my kid how to act I say “Don’t act like a Dominican big leaguer”.
