The Houston Astros announced on Friday afternoon that right-hander Cristian Javier will start Game 3 of the American League Championship Series against the New York Yankees on Saturday. Fellow right-hander Lance McCullers Jr., who had been expected to get the nod, will instead start Sunday's Game 4.

McCullers told reporters, including Mark Berman of FOX26, that he was pushed back a day after being hit in the elbow by a spare champagne bottle as Houston celebrated their Division Series sweep over the Seattle Mariners.

Damn. I wanted him against Cole, but I have faith in Javier. Doesn't ever really seem phased.

McCullers can complete the sweep on Sunday.

Were any of you able to get through on the presale today? I didn't see the email in time.

I wonder how many tickets were actually for sale, after eliminating season ticket holders, and league and corporate sponsor tickets.

When do the ws tickets go for open sale? Or did I miss that one too? Google is just giving me a buttload of secondary ticket sites.

The email said my exclusive "presale" was from Noon to 1 today.
Then another email sent at 1:12PM said "world series tickets now on sale."

I assume we missed on face price, I didn't find anything on the seating map.

They had $290 SRO tickets when I looked. Strangely, i could only buy 1 at a time. When I put in two tickets together, nothing came back.

Are they going to stop you from standing together?

There used to be a truck in Clute with the Last Supper on the tailgate.

And a Corvette with the Corvette painted on the hood and Christ and the two thieves on crosses behind the image of the Corvette.

Classy.

I was getting pissed with him throwing consecutive walks with a 5 run lead. Throw strikes MF! Glad it didn't amount to anything.

Pitchers approach hitters differently based on game situation. With a 1 run lead, you are going to nibble a lot more at the corners and try to get them to swing at balls, while trying to avoid making a mistake that can tie the game with one swing. With a 5 run lead late in the game, you are going to go after the hitter by putting your nastiest pitches in the strike zone and daring them to hit it. The worst thing in that situation is to not even give the guy a chance to swing and miss by throwing balls, and you end up with a base runner and never had a chance at an out.

Throw balls on the corners that look like strikes

Sounds like the nuances of situational baseball are over your head, so it would probably be a baseball 101.

Let's get this win and then go get revenge for 1980 and probably the greatest playoff series ever…and don't argue 1986 was better!
I was in the room here one day... watchin' the Mexican channel on TV. I don't know nothin' about Pele. I'm watchin' what this guy can do with a ball and his feet. Next thing I know, he jumps in the air and flips into a somersault and kicks the ball in - upside down and backwards... the dang (sc) goalie never knew what the hell hit him. Pele gets excited and he rips off his jersey and starts running around the stadium waving it around his head. Everybody's screaming in Spanish. I'

I know it doesn't matter, but I'm pissed that the Phillies got their pennant in five games and we'll have to wait till tomorrow probably to even get game four.
