Hell of a series so far. All three games have been exceptional.

Make that 4 games, and I entirely agree. I'm sort of rooting for the Astros because they are AL, but like seeing the Dodgers back in the thick of things. I remember the WS in the 1950's when radio was huge and inning by inning results were made known in school during day games--specifically Johnny Podres in the 1955 WS. Plus I think "Dodgers" is one of the really good team names in all of pro sports even though they were first the Brooklyn Trolley Dodgers (and several other names before that). Still, the name reeks of American history. So too, sadly, the name of yankees, which the NYC team stole from New Englanders.

This city is going nutty!

Thanks for the reminder. Somehow, both home team crowds seem very energized this year.

I don't think that their name was ever "Trolley Dodgers." They did have other names, notably for about 15 year including the 1920's they were known as the Robins.

It has been a great series so far. I'm looking forward to an epic pitching matchup tonight.

I am still slightly favoring the Astros, but at this point, I really don't care who wins.

[OH FOY!]

Kershaw looks on tonight. All Sox Pitchers should see that Kershaw lead the Majors in 1st Pitch Strikes 69% of the time. Tom Seaver always said most important pitch is the 1st Pitch.

[TylerD]

Holy shit. Just like that tie game.

[a700hitter]

The racist tied the game.

[OH FOY!]

Lost it quick. WoW!

[Station 13]

This game is long. I had late dinner when the game began, now it's just in the 5th 2 hours later.

[Station 13]

Tie game, again. Altuve, what a player.

[a700hitter]

Altuve was so determined in that AB. He blasted. A foul ball deep into the LF stands and he kept swinging from the heels knowing that Maeda had nothing to get him out. He is some player.

[Spudboy]

Nice play George.
