We sent Yankees home tonight!

I live in Canada. We have only one team in the Major League Baseball League. The Toronto Blue Jays.

We didn't do as well as expected but in baseball there's always next year.

I love the game. I played it as a young man. I was a pitcher with lots of stuff on the ball.

This is our teams's 65th anniversary of a championship. This year we had a world championship held in our city. 12 teams from all over the world. The United States won the championship. Great baseball.

Baseball is my favorite also. My son was a left handed pitcher in HS and occasionally played first base. He was very good.
 
I'm happy the Yankees lost to the Astros.
In the 80's-90's I was a huge fan of both Toronto Blue Jays and LA Dodgers,but after the players went out on strike a 2nd time,I lost interest.
I may watch a couple games of World Series Sue
 
I favor any team that defeats the Yankees. (Remember the musical DamnYankees?)

This is the Astros big chance to overcome their awful loss to the White Sox 4-0 in the
2005 World Series. As a Sox fan, I sort of hope they win.
 
Thanks y'all. I know its a long shot and I thought we had blown it when we lost those 3 games. But just proud we made it to the Series and at least for a good showing!

I don't get what you are saying. There are posts from a few weeks ago in Sports that have more than 2 posts. Anyways I don't look at it as a competition; people post when they want to and the topics are ALL GOOD to keep posting in in Sports.:sentimental: I made a thread that is meant to last the entire NBA Season. More posts will come in time.

Just scroll down to the bottom where it says similar threads and when they took place and how many replies. That's what I was looking at. Don't give me a speech please.

The last one other than this one is Yogi Berra died in 2015.

Why are you obsessing over an innocuous post?
 
There's an old saying that goes something like:

"A hot dog at the ballpark beats a steak at the Ritz."
-Author Unknown-

Do you believe that?

Last night was a different story. Astro bats came to life near the end of those 11 innings. Nice win.

And a bit of luck. When the relief pitcher tried to pick off a Dodger and threw the ball wild and it hit the umpire preventing it from going into center field.

I have never seen that happen before and I have never seen a ball game like that one last night.

Were they playing with a souped up ball? I would have pulled the Astro pitcher long before the manager did with the lead they had.
 
Yes ... strange things happen in these games. Now on to game 3 in Houston on Friday.

I used to be a Dodger fan but I haven't followed baseball for a while. Is Koufax still pitching for them?
