Astros on the board first with a Springer homer top of the 3rd.
everything is going to feel like a letdown after game five
Dodgers bull pen under huge pressure nowâŚwill the workload be there downfall?
Bottom of the 6th
Barnes singles, Utley hit by pitch, Taylor doubles
So 1-1 with 2 runners in scoring position and no outs
Seager hits one to the wall, all but a 3-run HR, but still 2-1 with 1 out and Taylor on 3rd
Verlander in trouble
No further damage but LA now lead 2-1 into the 7th
Pederson HR in the bottom of the 7th makes it 3-1.
Considering he was essentially replaced at the trade deadline by Granderson, who has subsequently not made the WS roster.
Taylor predominantly plays CF now.
Lets see what the Astros have leftâŚ
I donât follow either team, but I do want Astros to do well so I can watch Kate Upton jumping up and down cheering.
Onto game 7
Astros had plenty of chances to make inroads but failed. I wonder how Maeda, Morrow, and critically Jansen will feel tomorrow. Câmon Astros!
Hers my prediction of what the dodgers will try to do game 7
darvish 4 Kershaw 3 Watson Then jansenâŚ
The more this series goes on the more im despising the dodgersâŚ
Hopefully my astros batâs will fire upâŚ
As for our pitching mcullers Morton give them strength!
What have the Dodgers done to inspire hatred (shut up, @DonMania!)
Are your grandparents Mexicans who were thrown out of Chavez Ravine when the whole neighbourhood was ripped away to build Dodger Stadium.
This has just been a brilliantly contested series between two very good teams.
MVP is wide open
None of the gun pitchers are demanding it
If Houston win, youâd think itâs out of Springer, Bregman or Correa
If LA win, youâd think probably Taylor or possibly Pederson
Of course, a massive game tomorrow could put someone into contention.
The likes of Altuve, Seager, Turner, Bellinger could fit in there.
As much as I hate the Dodgers (I know its news to you @Alan_Noonan_10), I love the thrill of a Game 7. I know back in '14 I thought I was going to throw up the whole day waiting for the game to start.
Canât wait!
Just arrived in Houston. Gonna mosey down to Minute Maid park in a bit to catch the pregame party and try and snag a ticket to watch the game in the stadium. Tix are free but not many left.
Get warming in that dodger pen
Astros off to a great start
Springer lead off double
Scores on an error by Bellinger, Bregman to second
Steals third
Scores on groundout by Altuve
2-0, 2 outs, top 1, nobody on
Taylor leadoff double
Turner and Puig hit by pitch
But Seager and Bellinger strike out limply
Pederson up with 2 out and bases loaded
The Dodger lefties donât even look like hitting McCullers
Until Pederson grounds out
This is going to be a long stressful game
Give the astros strengthâŚ
oh dear McCullers has hit 2 in the first bases loadedâŚ
