It will be interesting. Maybe Siri is one of those guys who is fearless and thrives in this type of moment?

Or he comes and crashes and burns from over-excitement.

Yes

Rally shirt making its first appearance of the 2021 playoffs. Bought this one when we went to the uniforms we're currently in. Full of holes now. First playoff appearance was 2017 game 1 of ALDS, helped a buddy at his Harvey stricken house that morning then hauled ass to his parents to watch the game. Also had it on my back the night we won it all and it's made several playoff appearances every year since. It's become a reminder of the bad times (100 loss seasons, Harvey) and the good (first WS Championship and the run we've been on since).
LFG!!!

3 of 4 will happen tonight

- Urquidy goes 5 full innings
- Breggy bomb
- Siri multi hit game
- Yordan bomb

Dear Astros, I already got kicked in the nuts once today by a sports team. It's abuse to do it twice

I got that double donkey kick Saturday. I'm still limping.

The @astros need to get 81 more outs to make it to the World Series.

They're ready to get creative to get those 81 outs. #Astros | #ForTheH | #Postseason pic.twitter.com/NzlJNk24jF

So if we were to redo the "most punchable face on the Red Sox" poll today, would anyone not put Ki-ke Hernandez first on their list?

Devers is pretty high up on that list for me.

Boston has scored 11 of its 13 runs in this ALCS via the home run

Need to limit homers

Astros hitting with runners on base in postseason: .353 (36-for-102 AB)

Astros hitting with bases empty this postseason: .221 AVG (23-for-104)

The Astros have scored at least five runs in each of their six games this postseason. Only the 1987 Twins (7 games) have opened a single postseason with a longer such streak.

Seeing them on the big screen Friday we decided that Verdugo, Arroyo and Vazquez all tied for the Most Ugly Mofo Ever award.

Astros have slashed .368/.431/.526 in 65 plate appearances vs. LHP this postseason entering their Game 3 matchup against southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez.

Urquidy’s only career start against Boston was on May 31, when he allowed one run on three hits while striking out nine in six innings in an 11-2 win.

Trying to bring that A-rod quality insight to the boards

Eduardo Rodriguez has a 7.02 ERA in 10 postseason games (3 starts). He is 1-3 with an 8.53 ERA in six career starts against Houston.

Small sample size stats. We'll see how it plays out now

Dusty manages just like I manage my fantasy football team.
Make big moves, sometimes they might work and make you look like a genius.

Dusty making a dumb decision


Watch Siri hit a bomb over the monster tonight and make Dusty look like a genius

---

I agree.

But if Siri hits a bomb and helps us win the game then it wasn't a dumb decision, then you and I were just wrong… which I hope we are

---

If Siri hits a homer, he's gonna make pimp the absolute crap out of it.

We need to come out "hot" tonight. Crooked number right away.

Time to get the bats cracking. I'm taking no prisoners tonight.

Jonathan Papelbon throws out the first pitch at Fenway, slips on the mound, gets up, points to the radar gun reading on the big video board in center field.

that's pretty good, but let's see him throw 80 mph when he's 70 years old like Nolan.

**** Altuve chant? Really?
