Hey gang, Dlew here with another edition of the Gems from the Game Thread. I went over to Crawfishboxes.com and read 1392 posts so you don't have to! Let's get right to it, shall we?
major relatives live in KC and they are obnoxious as hell . . . Go Astros from Des Moines Iowa!!!
Rangers fan here ... DO IT!
you’re my team from here on out (this postseason)
what a day for that guy
I hate everything about the Royals
They stole our moment at home. Erased a legendary game by Correa and robbed our fans of celebrating at MMP. Time to return the favor and END THEIR SEASON!
1-2-3 inning. Damn damn damn. Really want to deflate this crowd early.
Cueto had his choice of teams...
make him pay, ’stros.
I feel good about our chances, I think Mchugh is gonna be locked in.
Dear Collin,
I have faith in you.
That’s what is on my mind as you start this ALDS game 5. Win or lose, you are an inspiration. But you’re going to win.
Because that’s what you do.
20 times so far this season. Let’s have 21 tonight!
Keep in mind y'all their rally in the last game was a bunch of seeing eye dribblers
they did rally, there is no mistaking that, but they did not knock the heck out of the ball
I would rather have the players that can knock the tar out of the ball, than those that depend on a rally of singles.
Wide strike zone for Cueto
all these well struck flyouts got me nervous.
I'll be nervous until the last out is recorded in this game
i doubt "nervous" is the emotion he was feeling with one out to go.
The fact that those swings off Mchugh that looked like they might get out ended up being caught makes me think Mchugh has some good juju on his side tonight.
Complete game shutout. Lets just fuckin do this.
I just want to get a win and be done with the Royals. So many full counts and foul balls.
I'd like to have Keuchel on full rest for G1 of ALCS
heh
not doing crap against Cueto. Outside of 1 swing, its all been pretty terrible at bats.
probably gonna need more than 2 runs and I’m not sure that’ll come off of their bullpen. Really need to settle down and stop taking uncontrolled guess swings against him.
The Royals’ approach is so good. They work the count, foul off pitches and stay alive till they walk or get their pitch to hit. But as an Astros fan and the opponent its SOOOOOO annoying.
I swear the Royals sure have had their share of lucky hits this series.
After Cain's score:
WHAT THE eff WAS THAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?
screw this fluky ass team. So damn sick of the Royals
ha ha ha! loser!! ha ha! we won you lost, loser! congratulations on not having a fluky team! sucks you lost though! we didn't lose, we won! not like you, loser! in your loser face, idiot! ha ha ha.
Royals fans are so annoying.
eff the Royals and their candy-ass pipsqueak offense. Hope the Astros hit a couple long bombs this inning.
One last crack at cueto with the top of the order
they'll have more than one crack at cueto.
Just looking at how Cueto struts off the field tells you exactly the attitude of the whole team & their fans
THIS is why I hate KC. Bunch of arrogant pricks taking their cue from their genius-in-his-own-mind manager.
? WHY WON'T THESE GIYS SWING?!?!?!??!
Seems like game over to me
Almost no way KC doesn’t tie here. Cueto has our number now.
rough ridin' hate the Royals so god damn much
Frankly, it doesn't matter who comes in from the BP, little flares, hits they hug the line, Stros can't compete with the Royals and their hits and deep counts.
eff the Royals.
OK, backs against the wall, time for an epic comeback! Go Astros!
edit: the Royals left us stunned in Houston, let’s return the favor here in KC. Never give up!
OK
I rough ridin' hate the Royals!!!
I HATE THE ROYALS!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is gonna be a tough series to lose
Astros have led by at least 2 runs in each of the 5 games
I choose to believe we're gonna eff over the Royals in the late innings.
It will be fun watching Toronto Launch on the Royals
We probably wouldn’t have made it past Toronto
watching the Jays absolutely crush KC would be a nice backup plan.
Correa will be the hero tonight. Don’t know when or how, but he will be.
Its gonna be so much sweeter when we come back and win. To see everyone here go from hopeless to overjoyed. I believe we can do it. Do you?
We're gonna carnage all over these Royals! 5 run 7th
we just cant beat the Royals fluky ass luck
Hard to win when your offense can’t get more than 2 hits in 7 innings. 16 in a row retired. SOOOOO glad we could be the tagline in shitty Johnny Cuteo’s one good start as a Royal
Down to 3 outs. The comeback just keeps getting more and more legendary...
after the 8th inning bomb
Yeah, now it is OVER!
I hope the Jays CRUSH these Royals. I really do.
God do i hate the Royals though. Let's go Mets.
Credit to the Royals, they faced way more adversity that the Astros this series and they beat it like champs. when they needed runs, they got runs, when they needed outs they got outs
Congrats to the Royals. They play, what is to my eye, a very beautiful brand of baseball. Yet our boys played with them toe to toe and were not outclassed.
Thanks and go Royals.
