I think I accidentally just bought two sets of "tickets" and I have no idea where the hell they are. In my excitement, I didn't realize the details were so vague.

And what the heck does this mean: Quantities are limited only 15 pairs available

Did I just pay money for the "chance" at tickets?
I would guess that's how many are left. Ive gotten things through the priceless.com mastercard thing before. they are legit.

hope you're right. Game 2 is showing sold out now so that has to mean something.

In any case, thanks for the heads up. Worst case scenario, I take some friends.

Let us know what kind of seats they end up being. Hoping they do this for ALCS too.

3,000 + 300 for the season + no-no probably sways the vote


That, but Cole's ERA has improved over Verlander's the last 5 games and he is having a top 10 all time strikeout season as well.

The stat I saw that caught my eye is the Astros have won every game Cole has started since the all-star game.

Edited to make more sense.


Cole was nowhere close to the top 10 all time strikeout seasons.


Maybe I read it wrong, but during the game they posted a graphic on TV that showed him top ten for strikeouts in a single season. Nolan Ryan was on the list a couple of times. Maybe it was the American League only, but I swear it said most strikeouts in a season.

I do know he set the Astros record for strikeouts in a season.

if you take out the records from before 1900, cole's current season would place him at 14th.

of the 69 pitcher-seasons that have hit the 300 strikeouts mark, all-time, 15 are from a single year, 1884.

you're not going to convince me that those pitchers were better than a modern day pitcher, let alone the level of talent they were facing, that's just silly.

https://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/SO_p_season.shtml
Why stop there? Why not take out everyone from before 1990 since modern day pitchers don't throw as many innings as they did prior to 1990? JR Richard would not have had 313 Ks in 1979 if he hadn't thrown 292 innings. Mike Scott would not have had 306 in 1986 if he hadn't thrown 275 innings. Nolan Ryan wouldn't have had 383 Ks had he not pitched 326 innings. Then Cole would be 6th, behind Randy Johnson who would be 1 through 5 (in 5 consecutive years).


Cole would be considered to have the 13th most strikouts in a season by most anyone who would list the records. Almost all records like this are typically compiled starting from the beginning of the "live ball era" in 1920.

1884 is the year the league stopped letting umpires call games from rocking chairs. So of course just about everything was a strike.

If it is Astros vs A's in the 1300 game, that is a total slap in the face to both fan bases. Astros vs Rays, I understand, but putting two AL west teams in the early slot is bullcrap.

Have you seen the A's stands? They don't exactly fill up a stadium.

I went to a game there a few years ago. That place really is a dump. Shame too. The place is right next to the water and could be great, but lots of industrial yards next door, cargo trains and container trucks galore. Like they stuck a stadium on Jacintoport.

There should be plenty of trees outside of 500 Crawford Apartments to hang the Octobong from.

Hang the octobong from one of those trees in front of HTX Tavern. Plenty of vatos will partake in that.
