that fifth run by Altuve is looking nice right now. That Enrique Guy has been pounding ball tonight.

Love the result. Didn't care much for the way he pimped it. If he can deliver that, I don't care if he moons the Red Sox dugout. LOL |

I have never seen a hitter delivering like Kike Hernandez has this post season. He is the reason the Red Sox are in this series. We need to figure out a different way to pitch him or just walk him. Two home runs, a double, and single. The only time we got him was when Maton struck him out.
Jose came through with a big home run to tie the game and then a clutch Sac fly that drove in what proved to be the winner. And, Carlos Correa comes through again with a big home run and two more hits. Chas isn't bothered by the pressure...3 hits and great defense. Big win for this team and takes a little pressure off Luis Garcia tomorrow.

And, if more runs score this inning, I'm sure Jose is blameless and it's all on Framber. Altuve owes the Astros 2 more runs this game, and I'm confident he will deliver.Dang.... nicely done, and spot on!!!! |

Fastest player to reach 20 HR in the postseason. Interesting

Love the result. Didn't care much for the way he pimped it. Me neither.....he is definitely working it now. Back in my earlier days of watching the game in the '60's and '70's, that kind of garbage wasn't put up with. Guys like Nolan Ryan, Don Drysdale, Bob Gibson, Sam McDowell, and Juan Marichal saw to that. Showingboating sucks, and is a distraction to the game, and goodsportsmanship. |

Fastest player to reach 20 HR in the postseason. Interesting But he's the leadoff hitter. He's supposed to be hitting for average, not swinging for the seats! Somebody needs to make him understand his place. /sarcasm |

Any of those pitchers would deck many of today's players for some of the stuff they do. I'm use to seeing Carlos put the hand up to his ear, but, acting like he was tapping a wristwatch while admiring the home run was taking it to the extremes. The more he delivers this post season, the more pressure will be on Crane to re-sign him. |

I'll never forget what Beltran did in 2004 and then Drayton let him walk. I'm not sure we ever got the facts about what we offered him to stay. Kike has had good games before but I've never seen him at the point where you couldn't get him out. |

Kiké is like Beltrán then minus the perfect baserunning. His defense is also iffy by comparison to Beltrán. The Astros really need to hit something for him to chase out there. The diving catch he made on Brantley should’ve been an easier play. He almost gave Tucker a double by overrunning the fly ball. |

I am impressed with what we are seeing from Chas this post season. |
