Gotta give Dusty some credit.
Yep, because he certainly would have taken a whole ton of crap if it didn't work out.

But the counter is they haven't lost back to back at home this year. Something ends tomorrow

Their pitching drops off after Maeda, right?


I believe so. Berrios goes for them tomorrow. He doesn't typically pitch late into games. 5 1/3 on average, so it's good we already got into their pen. He went 5-4 this year over 12 games with a 4.00 ERA and 1.317 WHIP. His last outing against Cincy on the 25th he went 5 inning and gave up 4 runs.

Most important number is that WHIP number. Gives the Astros, and specifically the top of order lots of chances hopefully.

Hitters need to be patient to start the game tomorrow like they were today.

We break out tomorrow and run a train on the Twin Cities.
Book it.

Mojo has started an inevitable roll down the playoff hill and will not be stopped.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

A small but gratifying benefit of winning an early game- you get to watch playoff baseball all evening long and see the final score flash again and again.

I bet there will be a lot fewer highlights of this game now than there would have been if the Twins would have won lol.

Yes, but we let Maeda off the hook. He only had his "C" stuff today.

This is extremely correct. Don't think a franchise has ever been through a worse 11 months.

Lose game 7 at home. Lose Cole. Fiers squeals. Everyone hates them. JV needs Tommy John. Yordan needs surgery. Osuna gone. So many late leads blown. So many extra inning losses.

The guys deserved this one (and more).

I think box score wise we are the home team even though it's in their park.

edit because It looks like we don't flip according to espn schedule.

I assume he means the 'Stros will bat in the bottom half of the inning. Have no idea if that is true or not but I also assumed that will be the case.

Astros bat in the top half of the inning tomorrow. We are literally the road team and the road team in the box score.

I read the 5 innings. I'm just pointing out long no run relief in the playoffs is our speciality.

I was taking about myself. I have trouble sometimes. Deleted my whole post on that edit.

OK, I wasn't sure. If it goes to a Game 3, will the 'Stros be the "home" team like they were in those games originally scheduled at MM but postponed but made up out west due to the odd circumstances of this season?

SIAP but the 'stros have signed La Pina for a year's extension in 2021 with a club option for 2022.
