Here's a little longer clip of that Dero segment on MLB talking about Chas' catch and the multisport aspect
**** philly
Glad there's not a game tonight. I need a break from the stress.
The wait is actually worse for me
So are people willing to admit now that the rain out didn't benefit Philly?
The off day is good for Yuli's recovery and ability to contribute in the series going forward.

had we lost i'd feel the same. but having a rest day knowing we need to win 1/2 at home makes today more relaxing.
I just hit the fatigue wall from last night's revelries and 3 hours of post-game posting.

No. It benefited them. We're just that much better.

Astros possibly teasing throwback unis?

Absolutely not. Syndergaard is by far their worst starting pitcher - get got 2 runs in 3 inning against him.
With him on the mound for game 3 we very well might have beat them, then followed it up with our hottest pitcher in Game 4 (Javier).
What I will say is that we overcame the positive that delay was for phili.
I know this was juuust a bit rhetorical at this point as it seems to have worked ok for us 
. But JV also mentioned in the post game interview that it was huge for him. He got to throw 2 full bullpens and nail down a few tweaks in his mechanics, notably on the off speed stuff.

Also what tournament is this?
End of season rec tourney. It's been scheduled since before the season started.
It's on artificial fields. Short of a tornado they are playing. And all lightning will do is delay it. I'm hoping to be home in time to see the last couple of innings. I don't want to make it worse.

McClain must be one of those people that is never happy. Here's his post after the win.In 2019, Astros needed one win in the last 2 games at Minute Maid Park against the Nationals and couldn't pull it off. They were the only team to lose four World Series games at home. @gallerysports

Sounds like some of our fans.
I was trying to find the catch prob for Chas' play last night but can't convince statcast to show it.
You have any clue what it was? I know the xBA was .630

My son may have a rescheduled tee ball game tomorrow. Not sure what time. But if it is during the WS I will tell him to get an Uber and hope he plays well. Figure it out kid this is the WS.
I can’t stop looking at it. I think I’m obsessed with this Chas McCormick catch. pic.twitter.com/2xYI6Vq485

My daughter has a softball tournament that starts tonight. If it rains this afternoon, I fully expect to be watching some of Game 6 on my phone.
I don't blame McCain for thinking about 2019. We were the better team. We were going home up 3-2. We failed to finish the job then. A lot of people can't turn the page without proof. That's okay.
I feel confident in this squad. I think they slam the door shut on Saturday.

No way this team loses 2 games in a row this year. Not a chance in hell they let 2019 happen all over again. I expect them to come out on fire tomorrow night and wrap this thing up for Dusty. I honestly think we have an offensive explosion. We are beyond due for it.

1. I've gone hard at Mancini wanting him to not see the field again, my current take is hoping the defensive play has switched his brain so I now lean to hoping he starts at DH…. But man I hope Yuli is ok.
2. Harper is elite, we're clearly not letting him beat us and he's still getting his knocks, not chasing.
He's still a ***** though. (Who I would Love I see play for the Astros)

Good teams lose two in a row all the time.
They also win three in a row all the time.

Thinking about it and tweeting/writing about it in the immediate aftermath of celebrating a World Series win to go up 3-2 are two completely different things.

I'll never forget the sinking feeling leaving MMP after 2019 game 7. The stadium has never felt so depressed IMO.
This team is different though. Our bullpen is deeper and these guys know what it's like to lose 2 World Series now that they could have (and should have) won. They won't let that happen again

Give him a break, they ran out of chili fries at the Texans game. He was probably still upset.
I really don’t give a shit about another team stealing signs, but if you see Phillies fans trying to be holier than thou about it, here’s some links to sharehttps://t.co/KR6yIXszPqhttps://t.co/ThuLNEoAT0https://t.co/L6XaCMvS4z pic.twitter.com/hok7C8Zf1k

Chase Utley was the alleged king of sign steal/relaying.
What an absolute team win and a legendary Game 5. The crowd at Kirby seeing Chas' catch on the big screen was a religious experience.
Wish we had baseball to watch today but I think my heart can use the day off.
