This Astros forum thread is hysterical. Start reading here while they're on top of the world then watch it all start to crumble.

I didn't get to see the last few innings, but I can't wait to watch it after work.

And I hate to admit it, but I thought it was all over after the 7th inning.

you can admit it ... fangraphs had us at 1.6% ... MLB Network at 3.2%

Deberg_1990 · 10-12-2015, 04:44 PM

So will Houston try and 'Bumgarner" us in game 5 with Keuchel?

The Astros have been a fun series. Win or lose, they're fun to watch, and the fans have been very respectful.

If the Royals don't win game 5, I'm absolutely rooting for Houston over either the Jays or the Rangers.

I know you personally. You are as good a guy as there is. I took your post as nothing but respect.

That being said I think you took a couple of responses to it a little too personal. They were no different than the typical response any of us Chiefs' fans give our liked rival fans here. A harsh "eat a dick" reply is known to be with in the realm of sports rivalry and no more (in most cases). I'm pretty sure that is all that was going on here.

100%

and we should counter with Wade ****ing Davis

Seriously. Ned should go in with the thought process of Davis pitching 9 outs. And I know tk13 is going to laugh out loud at this ... but it is what it is. It's the postseason, and you can't hit him.

Maddon is going to pitch Arrieta 150+ if he needs to every time out ... no reason we can't pitch Davis 9 outs in an elimination game. That's how much better he is than anyone else on the Royals pitching staff.

all these royals do is intentionally foul of pitches to drive up pitch counts, and to get into bullpens... its a cheap but effective way to win

big nasty kcnut · 10-12-2015, 04:50 PM

Well it is my birthday tomorrow!

Be PROUD and BELIEVE in your team, cuz they sure did NOT give up on themselves as MANY of you GAVE UP ON THEM. Off to KC now for a 5th and final game where ANYTHING can happen. Its the way baseball was meant to be played!

GO ASTROS!

80 Phillies. I remember every minute of that series.

That 86 Mets series was one of the most incredible 5 games series ever.

Charlie Kerfeld.

Glenn Davis homering off Doc Gooden in game 1. (Gooden v Mike Scott).
