Given the later start, I had to get to sleep before the game ended. When I stopped following the game* the score was 5-4 Yankees, but I suspected the Astros were about to get into their BP. Very happy to wake up this morning to the 6-5 Astros final. **** you New York.

*I don't watch the games on TV. It is very difficult to deny myself that, but it goes back to a WS game in 2017. I was invited to a watch party on the same night that Mississippi State kicked A&M's ass at Kyle, and the Dodgers won that ball game. I didn't watch any further games, and as we all know, the Astros won that Series.
Brother, we've lost two ALCSes and two World Series since then. I think you're ok to watch.

Our dominance over the yankees goes well beyond last season

Yup.

Eliminated them in '15, '17, '19, and '22.

Vasquez at DH....ok, hear me out.

The down side is obvious. If something happened to Maldy we lose the DH. But honestly, how likely is that? Far less likely than Mancini or Diaz getting a hit. And even if that did happen, and the pitcher's spot comes up, we could just use our PH as needed, we have 4 of them. So, now not only are we talking about the minuscule chance that Maldy would have to be removed, it would only really matter if it occurred in the first 6 innings or so, so the probability is cut down another standard deviation.

It won't happen. It's fan stuff. But, it's just Monday so why not think outside the box (score).

No, not really. Note that I said the complete domination. The Yankees were five and one against the Astros last year until Altuve's walk off. And they took the Astros to seven games in 2017.

I hope this is just a really bad attempt at a joke.

So what's your favorite postseason moment so far?

1. Yordan's walkoff in ALDS game 1
2. Peña's HR in the 18th
3. Pressly inducing Judge's dribbler to win ALCS
4. Bregman's 3 run HR in game 2 of ALCS
5. Peña's 3 run HR to tie it last night
6. Judge's "wind ball" in game 2

WS Announcers are Joe Davis, John Smoltz, Tom Verducci and Ken Rosenthal.

So, that's the DODGERS play by play guy and a former Braves pitcher. Fantastic.

A lot of haters, but I wish Joe Buck was there. His voice is WS baseball.

IMHO none of this happens without the Yordan ballistic missile in GM 1B of the ALDS. Frankly without that we might have gotten swept. Certainly a very good chance of not winning the series.

I really like John Smoltzs analysis of the game. His baseball mind is great. He almost predicts what will happen because he is a true baseball guy.

I like him too. I'm more rankled that Fox fully intended to have the Dodgers' play by play guy call an Astros-Dodgers World Series.

If your answer to this isn't 1 then you are wrong. Completely altered our whole postseason.

Robert Ford is very good at what he does. Him and Sparky are awesome. The Astros have a World Series caliber radio broadcast team, too.

Agree. I would place Peña's 18th inning homer as second. It's hard to pick a single moment from that game, but if you had to that would be it.

This would be my guess, however we've seen games regularly starting a half hour earlier this postseason and since their is no west coast team I could see 6:30 or maybe even 6:00 game starts.

Does anyone think the WS roster changes?

I don't see any reason to. Just throwing it out there.
