I was just coming here to say I wonder if the Philly fans had given up on their team the way we did on our team on this forum last night. LOL. I will say this they are in Shock, it is one thing for your team to shut out the other team after your offense explodes. Then all you come to the Game expecting to go up since you have been winning at home and the next night same guys get NO Hit. Especially only second time WS History

Vasquez’s name is now etched in history alongside Yogi Berra as the only catchers to catch a World Series no-hitter. That’s pretty good company.

Now onto g5: IF Verlander can remember that he’s Justin freakin’ Verlander and we win tomorrow I don’t see them beating Framber in Houston. The downside to losing tomorrow is that assuming we win g6 then guess who would be in line for g7: Ol’ Twitchy. If it goes to 7 and he doesn’t start Javier on 3 days rest I will explode and my poor ill wife will have to clean my entrails off the wall. If there is a game seven, Javier has to start. I absolutely agree with you. McTwitchy should not throw another pitch this WS.

Nobody gets rocked that hard without them reading something off of him. I don't know if it's the leg kick thing going around on social media or not, but nobody gets hit that historically hard without tipping something.

No way should McTwitchy be considered the #1 or #2 starter in the Astros rotation next season. I’m not sure he would be #3.
If JV doesn’t return, I would line the SP’s up like this:
#1 Framber #2 Javier #3 Garcia #4 Brown #5 Urquidy
If I couldn’t trade Lance in a deal for Reynolds, I would put him in the bullpen.

The Mariners game seems more like an outlier than anything else.

The Mariners game seems more like an outlier than anything else. His home/road splits for his career are definitely a thing. Last year he was actually better on the road, but this year he was back to his career norms. It's why I wanted him to start Game 2 with Framber in Game 3. Framber is better on the road and was way more consistent this year.
