Have hated the Yankees (in a good way) since growing up a diehard National League fan in the late 50's. Can vividly remember walking home from the local elementary school with my friend and listening to Mazeroski's home run put a huge smile on my face and simultaneously bring tears to his eyes. Getting the feeling that this might be one of those years when I'm just gonna have to grin and bear it so to speak. They still have to find a way to beat one of the two Astro big guys however, so we shalll see.

If the Yankees were playing ISIS I would pull for ISIS. If I could hate them more, I would, but I think it is impossible.

another RBI for Judge thus far in game 5 and again ZERO left on base..

starting to look like a Dodgers v. Yankees series...



Edited to add... game over....add another walk for Judge as well. also ZERO left on base yet again for him. Thus the K's all with nobody on base.

Question:

What is the significance of the year 2124?


Right. That will be the NEXT time the Cubs have to wait 108 years...

The Dodgers have won 7 of the last 8 games in which Kershaw has started. A number of those are against the opposing team number 1's starter.

His team won all 3 of his starts this year. I think the 'bad in the playoff's' moniker is falling off.... a 2.45 era in the cubs series and a .82 whip.. and team won both his starts..

Whats the deal with the Dodgers? No Seager and they still win easily. I guess the deal is they are really good.

The Yankees and Astros have held home field in the Series so far. I am not a fan of the 2-3-2 format. I think the three straight at home for the "underdog" is a bit unfair. I know its worse for the travel but my prefered playoff format is
2-2-1-1-1. I will say im not a fan of either team just my opinion

3.64 ERA is not good. It would be a lot worse, but the Dodgers have finally learned he is worthless past the 6th inning. Kershaw is still bad in the playoffs.

Judge has now tied the record for most strikeouts in a single postseason. He still has one game left to break the record and that doesn't even count a potential 4+ World Series games.
