Indoor baseball is weird, but man that roof makes that place loud. It was pretty quiet after NY tied it up though. Got to take the crowd out of it early 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mammajamma Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 A lot of people thought we'd get swept in both series, and we beat the dodgers which were, in my mind, our worst matchup of any team with their lineup. But hey, here we are. So no need to get star stuck. It'll be tougher than STL obviously, but if our SPs can keep playing to their potential, I like our chances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRobi21 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 At least if we lose it wont be to those damn Yankees! Astros are a very likeable group/organization. Â Should be a fun/puke inducing series! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But will be interesting to see how their SPs adjust when they play in our home games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all comes down to starting pitching for both teams in the end, and I trust our four over their four. We need to get deep into their bullpen in at least two games, which means working quickly and getting leads early like we did against the Cards.  Obviously we're going nowhere if our starters can't get 6 innings consistently. Edited October 20, 2019 by Bacon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
