Got to go today with my dad. That. Was. Awesome.

He drove in from rangerland to go. We both agreed that was the best baseball game we've ever been to. Totally electric all game. And then the 9th inning was on another level.

Where does verlander's start rank in post season history?


Still behind Jack Morris' 10 inning shutout.

I'm still partial to Mike Scott 1-0 14K game over the Mets in '86
Not to take 1 thing away from JV. One of the all time brilliant playoff performances. Love this guy!

You're doing it wrong. I'm in such a good mood about the Astros that I'm very complacent watching the game. Whatever happens happens and I don't normally feel like that about the Aggies. It's almost more enjoyable in some ways.
Currently a happy listless vessel and deplorable. #FDEMS TRUMP 2024.
Fight Fight Fight.

I never miss a game.. If it weren't for the Astros my blood pressure would be through the roof

They were the worst. The guy behind me was banging it the whole game. I'm gonna have nightmares tonight about them...

Mike threw two complete games in the 86 NLCS. One shutout, one 1R performance. He was the man before his rotator cuff injury. One of the most dominant series pitching ever.
Game 6 of the '86 NLCS still haunts.. Everyone knew if the Astros pulled out that game, Scott would certainly pitch Houston to its first pennant.

This truly is a special team!!! I think this might be better than the 98 team or the 05 World Series team.

And it is even better when the Ags pull out the W. A nice end to a great sports day.

The Ags aren't a great team, but they are competing more than I've seen in years. Couple that with the SEC being mediocre and we could magically end up with 9 wins

That rule about blocking the plate is incredibly stupid. I can't believe the runner was called safe there.

Called safe although he never touched home plate. Ridiculous

I understand the intent of the rule. Nobody wants to see a catcher get trucked and concussed. But that call was BS. And the replay official doesn't have to stand out there and get yelled at. He he's to make the call from safety. At least for tonight. He comes into the rotation on the field in game 3 in Chicago. Want to wager on his reception?

He made the right call though. That's the rule. I don't necessarily like it, but that's the rule...

It's really looking like adding Verlander was the last piece that y'all needed to make it to the World Series.

It's the right call using a stupid rule that should die this post season.

Anyone know if the Astros radio call of the game is posted/archived somewhere? Want to hear our guys' call of the final play?

I may be wrong but I don't think our radio guys call postseason games.

That Twitter handle reminded me of the game. They put a lady on the Jumbotron who was holding a sign that said "I want your springer dinger"

You are wrong. I almost wrecked my truck due to me ripping my clothes off while driving on the beltway listening on 790
