    This should be one helluva pitcher's duel...

    Split screen Madness?? ALCS or Crimson Tide??
    Neither...~!
    Will be at the mercy of a hospital TV.
    Dad has been out of the hospital for 5 days. I had a bad gut feeling of intuition at 10:30 last night. I drove over to his house only to find my sister, his live-in caretaker, missing in action. Dad was laying on the floor in the dark of the night helpless moaning. Called the ambulance, & spent the night in the ER with him.
    He has been readmitted one week after his hernia surgery. I have been told his blood is septic. A mass exist within his bladder. He has been urinating blood.

    He's undergoing a barrage of testing.
    If he survives this, he will be tended to on an Alzheimers unit.
    I am going home to get a nap. 5 hours sleep over the last 56 hours... Over and out..............

    Correa singles in Bregman with 2 out RBI single. Stros 3-2. New relief pitcher enters.
    It’s Matt Barnes.

    Astros have homered in 13 consecutive postseason games...

    Am I hearing this right? The Astros 13 P.S. Consecutive HR's have tied the Bagwell, Biggio, Berkman and Beltran killer bees Astros???

    Marwin Gonzalez walks another walk.
    These Red Sox weren't so great after all.
    Pitching staff obviously hasn't been cold.

    Correa lines out too short...

    Collin McHugh takes the mound to close out the night-9th... I love to see Boston lose in Boston.

    Bogaert's with long single off the green monster. Marwin Gonzalez plays that bounce off the wall perfectly holding Bogaert's to a single

    Nothing like watching these Sox fall to an opponent. And pitching put them to rest tonight........
    with a starter who pitched through 6 innings.

    Cora allegedly told his team they were better than the '17 Astros. Probably should have held that commitment until after the series is over. I have to wonder about Verlander, in his final days with Detroit he was on the 'bout through list. Guy goes to Houston and morphs into 5 super heroes. If your major league you could be suspect. I don't like either team, did not watch the game read the box score when finished. Looks like Sale sold out early in this one.
