Look I like in Philly and Pivetta did nothing here which is why the Phillies gave up on him. I say the Stros scorch him for 7 runs tonight and he's chased after the 3rd  Big Grin

Don't get me wrong E-rod and Evoldi are ok, but they are all a number 4 or 5 starter on most clubs. They are doing fine now but sooner or later they will implode. None of those starters are top of line guys. Period. But none of that matters right now.  The Astros bats gave up. I don't know. It's almost like they are throwing this series. Maybe Altuve and Correa bet on the Sox  Big Grin

That should be your concern because the Stros have a couple proven make it happen in the big game guys.
Huge huge win Stros!! Yeah!! I mean wow
I'm glad I spent the evening watching Poltergeist with my daughter instead.
Sox need the last game at Fenway. That would make for an exciting end to a good series.
Framber!! What a performance
The Sox offense I was gloating about just went cold the last two games, period.

I'm just hoping game 6 is at least close!
Allowing 9 runs a game is problematic as well.  This series is over.

Congrats.  I hope the Astros win!

And I believe we will have many more playoff series ahead of us in the coming years.
Braves all the way!!!!
