Houston goes for the sweep. Orioles ready to keep their streak.

I mean they’ve been to the World Series 4 times in the last 6 years and are probably the favorite to make it again this year.  They’re a tough team to beat even if things don’t fall their way. 

Of course.  And IMO better than the Orioles and should be favored in a series against them.  But this year’s Astros are not a juggernaut.  And the big difference in this series has been the Os allowing too many free base runners and the Astros hitting into some lucky outcomes, not some huge talent gap or tactical superiority.

Buckle up.

Really?  I'm basing my respect of the ABs they've had all series.  Their approach as well as bat control have impressed me quite a bit. 

Completely agree.  These guys have spoiled sbout 25 good two-strike pitches in this series.

Do they still do this cheesedick intro during day games?  I suppose so.

If we can have the best record in the AL, we have a bye week and play the lowest seed and home field advantage.

Side note to the MASN crew. It's not Hun-die. It Hun-day ---rhymes with Sunday.

Highly possible we see Tucker again here.  If we do he'll be the go ahead run again in all likelihood.

Eh, check out Cleveland if you want to watch a contact focused approach to hitting.

yeah they might have a high BABIP but they've earned it with their approach.

It’s now sponsored, so I guess they are obligated.
