Bottom of the 7th. They are toast.
I suspect this has to do with SEX - when at home.

If they lose 4 games at home I don't know what I'll do. I first had my heart broken by the Astros in elementary school when they lost the NLCS in '86. Then again in '17 as we were recovering from losing our home that August due to Hurricane Harvey...and finding out they had cheated.
However, the past few years have been the golden years to be an Astros fan.
Just need to add another ring for '23.
Yep, back to the sports book to cash in... Or more likely to re-invest in the WS.Looks like your bet was good.

True enough.Playin' with house money!
I'll probably watch the final Philly/Arz game tonight since I know very little about either team. Regardless, I'll probably go with the Rangers anyway. "Home Team, and all that sort of stuff". Anyway, I won't be going to the sports book until tomorrow morning so I have time to think about it.I'd bet on the Phillies if they get in. Rangers otherwise. But I'm not a betting guy.
I have had some good intuition calls lately, but if I would have bet hard dollars, they all would have lost. LOL!
I'm surprised at the lack of posts for the Diamondbacks. Here's a team that backed into the playoffs, was given little chance of going anywhere once the playoffs started, and have swept the Brewers, Dodgers, and come back from 0-2 to force a Game 7 vs the Phils.
Exciting win last night.
Go D'Backs!
When I was a kid I loved baseball and knew most of the players and teams pretty dang well. Saw many games in the Astrodome and before that I can remember seeing a few games in the old Buff stadium. That was when Houston only had a minor league team.It’s fun for fans whose team is out of it to see good series! Baseball in general is just a good fun game.
Anyone here remember the name of the first Houston major league baseball team before they changed their name to the Astros?
I do but I won't say....also a beer name
Ding, ding, ding... Both correct.Colt 45’s?
I can still remember when and where I was when I first heard the new teams name. The kid across the street, who was a few years older than me, told me about it. I was about 10 at the time and we were playing catch out in the street. Remember it like it was yesterday. Amazing how some things stick with you like that.I have no idea how/why I remembered that name. Didn’t look it up. Maybe it was Ken Burns’ Baseball.
