Houston fans heading to the exits in the eighth.

Guess so.

He's 74, he's won a world series as manager, I think that was the ultimate goal although back to back would've been nice. Supposedly a great guy but he managed the Cubs out of the 2003 World Series and failed in 2004.

I just meant goodbye 2023 Playoffs for the cheatin' Astros. If Baker thinks it's time to retire, good for him.

I don't believe in jinxes, but I'll gladly spread the news that it's Teddy's fault.

Fans had urged the Texas senator to stay away from the final game of the American League Championship Series.

3-2 in the sixth, managers playing for every base by having star hitters bunt, every starter in the bullpen and available.

Proper Game 7!

Why so violently opposed to a team from another Division?

Phil's are from another division too.

Just don't like Arizona or the Snakes, plus they effectively knocked the Cubs out and a Snake/Texas world series was way low on my totem pole of interest.

[O Really]

Well damn.

Fair enough.

Who knocked the Cubs out? The Diamondbacks lost their last 4 games and were 4-6 down the stretch.

Just how much outside help did the Cubs merit?

Dbacks took 6 of 7 from the Cubs in mid September, they were the beginning of the end of our wild card and divisional first place dreams.

Ah, BadReptilesBad. Where's Stompin' Superneo when you need him?

GO Snakes > Texans, show that the Cubs barely lost to a great team.

Who would have guessed that a team that was .519 vs all of MLB would be .750 vs the best of the NL?

Oddly, the Texan path is a duplicate: 2-0, 3-0, 4-3, .750, but they were .556 in the regular season

Shrub's throwing out the first pitch.

Go Snakes!

CRAP! Extra innings, I hope.

Betcha Kari Lake doesn't throw out the first pitch in Phoenix.
