A good team - with some excellent pitchers. Some great hitters too. Hopefully this will bring some joy to Houston - as they need it - the storm was devastating.
Nothing against the Dodgers but I'm glad to see Houston get the win. Between Harvey and the Astros not having won the Series before, it was nice to see.
I wanted the Dodgers to win going in, even after the game started last evening. That was right up to the time the bartender mentioned the Astros and hurricane harvey. Took about 5 minutes to hope that Houston would win.
The "why" of it. When andrew hit S. Florida, we were going through the same things as Houston. But when football season cranked up and we started going to the Dolphin and The U games, things changed. The diversion, I guess, but damn, it was good! Congrats to Houston!
I’m not sure how I feel about Verlander. I lived in Detroit for 10 years, so I saw him when he was dominating for the Tigers. I also saw him his last couple years with the Tigers making a lot of money and struggling mightily, and I think being with Kate had a lot to do with his struggles, he wasn’t focused enough.
Congrats to the Astros for their first World Series title though!
