Who you got?

I'm going with a Astros v Dodgers rematch. Even with the Astros losing their #1 starter.

The Astros hitting and defense is 2nd to none.

Schwarber looked like an idiot against Javier in the 4th. That was one of his Cubs 2020 swings.

shaping up to be like the Sox game the other night.

Sale was HUGE to get out of those early inning jams.

Red Sox are a big boys team. Sure, they held the Astros to a run, but immediately they took advantage and got some runs to get the lead.

How bout Joe Buck, in Philly last night, in Houston tonight doin' baseball :lol:

Playing 1B in an NL game.

That shows u how much they want his bat in the lineup.

He will have some big hits in this series.

As much as I dislike both teams, I'd be amused if the Astros beat the Dodgers again and banged some trash cans to celebrate

Red Sox with 2 grannies first two innings . Wow.

Listening to NLCS on the radio broadcast and Boog Schambi is so much better on national radio than Marquee TV.

It’s night and day.

I’ll cut him some slack next season. Maybe Marquee is holding him back on TV.

Someone finally gets to Trinen.

not sure wtf taylor was doing. he's had a good post season until tonight.

Good game. I like how the Braves celebration was a bit more reserved. I think they learned a lot from blowing a 3-1 lead last year.

I dont know about better (I think he sux either way), but he is definitely much more professional and smooth-tones on the ESPN. On Marquee he is a slobbering mess of shit.

AM 1000.

Sounds INCREDIBLY and perfectly professional.

Nothing like the slop o' shit broadcasts on marquee this year.

I listened to Charley Steiner and Rick Monday on the Dodger radio broadcast for the last five innings once I got off my flight. Old timers, but top notch. Monday was timing pitchers throwing to home during the game to see whether the Dodgers should be stealing. He was totally into the strategy. And Steiner is always solid on PBP.



So I listened to some of the Dodger feed tonight (Steiner & Monday). I love Monday's old-timer feel.

Steiner is just ok, he sounds too overly polished, which of course comes from being an ESPN guy. Doesn't seem like a hometown kinda guy. And yes, I know he's been doin' Dodger games for a long time.

I listened to the Braves feed too, I liked them better. More Midwestern, homerish, more anxious/nervous. Joe Simpson on PBP, dont know who the analyst was.

By the way, regular-season Braves TV is Chip Caray, with Tom Glavine, yes Glavine, as analyst.

Didn’t win their division, and a lot of those wins against a team that lost 110 games.

Ozzie Albies had 30 home runs this year, but hasn’t hit a ball over 200 feet in his last 100+ AB?

Dodgers - Astros would be the best storyline.

Braves winning would better reflect my own personal mlb interest right now.

Sure handed Seagar not so sure handed. Braves up 2 games to none. another Braves comeback win.

I'm glad Nas Cusack was able to recover so quickly from the tough loss of his White Sox.

I don't heal so quickly. Maybe I'll look into the games but I just can't watch right now.

:lol: :lol: Do you know who played 1st base for the Sox in 1921?

It's easier to do when you didn’t expect much in these playoffs. It's the expectations that make you ill.

I see LA went with the "lets throw a starting pitcher into the game to protect a lead because I dont trust the bullpen that we've used all year and been fine to their job" strategy and got pounded . When will these managers learn.
