    Perhaps tomorrow Buck can stop his love fest for Altuve. I know the post season doesn't count for regular season awards but nobody who watches his can tell me Altuve is the MVP over Judge.

    For some reason when watching these games that many thought that Houston was going to come into this series and take 4 straight. From interviews with Hinch and Houston Players I sense that they underestimated the Yankees and were surprised by the pitching they encountered. Glad to see this win, very good example of clutch.

    And not for nothing Judges homer which was listed as 427 was a joke. Fence is 408 and he hit it half was up the restaurant. 450 plus easy. Find a new way to measure homers

    ^^^^....
    Judgement day


    Judge leads Altuve in most offensive catagories, Altuve's been a singles, for hi-avg hitter, who can steal 32 bases, -pedestrian. Jose's behind Judge in runs created, runs scored, total bases, times on base, OBP, and OPS. It's not even close with HR's, RBI's, slg pctg, and BB's. Offensive WAR is barely the shrimp over our Giant...

    If Altuve's a spark plug, then Judge is a bombs explosion...

    ...according to "stat cast" Chris Taylor's HR was "the longest of this PS" (444 feet).

    ...no way.

    Met a buddy for drinks yesterday at 4pm thinking the game was on at 5pm pacific time. They were down 3-0 in the 7th and my buddy said hey sorry it doesn't look good for the Yanks. I immediately said, not so fast, these guys play like dynasty for the late 90s.

    I did not have to wait long, lol

    Sterling says, one of the greatest rallies I've ever seen. Hmmm, he's seen more than a few. But the greatest?

    what would you say was your favorite Yanx rally, ...?? so many to choose from, tho' I disagree with Sterling, as there has been more riotous rallies of yore...
