Last I watched was that blistering inning in game 5 when both teams scored 3 run homers - I left for home intending to watch whatever was left when I got home, but driving through hurricane force winds slowed me considerably. I see from the final score that I missed a hell of an ending.

I’ll definitely tune into game 7 tonight. :ok

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

I'm from the South Side of Chicago, where we watch the World Series approximately twice per lifetime.

(As opposed to the north siders, who only watch once per lifetime... 8-) )

Astros 5... Dodgers 0 -- 2nd inning.

I think the Dodgers might have to wait until next year.

Astros - 5
Dodgers - 1

FINAL


Looks like the Dodgers Choked The Chicken! :lol:

(being a life long SF Giants Fan, couldn't happen to a nicer team)

Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

I agree Dales. Good to be a Giants fan, three recent championships and getting to watch the Dodgers come up just a bit short the next best thing. :D

That’s great news! LA has no business being in the World Series.

Good for Houston!

That ended the way it should have. Congratulations, Houston!

First World series victory in the history of the franchise...(the team was created in 1962)

And yes, The Dodgers choked big time...they left 10 men on base...

Anybody here NOT interested in the World Series?

I've heard the Astros are turning down Drumpf's invitation to the White House. Does anyone know if this is true?
