World Series prediction ?

Game 4 prediction.
Astros and MinuteMaid come back down to earth.
Dodgers 5
Astros 1
(I hope I'm wrong, but I believe the Dodgers are better than what they've shown in their 2 losses.)

 

[Dave]

Thanks for the heads-up on the taco SOB. Anyone want mine?

No.

I put a very high value on a good taco.

The nearest Taco Bell is probably 80-100 miles. I don't know if a free taco covers the price of fuel to go get it.

Very, very possible. Throw out the first inning and Dodgers would have won yesterday 3 - 1

If Kershaw were on the mound today with the pressure of thinking he had to win 3 games, I would have said Shutout.
Wood had a great season, but he seems to be coming in almost too rested.
The Dodgers embarrassment of riches may actually end up being their downfall.

Just have to pay for one way worth of fuel Dave. That TacoBell mystery meat will give you enough gas to make it back home for free..

It's not mystery beef, it's Brahma ground extra fine for digestibility. I assumed Astro fans would be all gaga over it.
Just as Mid-westerners go gaga over Anything FREE.

Too many good and authentic corner and street taquerias around here for me to go to Tacohell even for a free one.

I sure miss them. Tamales too.

 

[Cross-7]

It was a better pitched game than I excepted.
I expected lots of offense

 

[Son of Butch]

Better pitched or cold bats?
Guess I have to go with better than expected pitching.
Wood impressed me with with how well he pitched with such a long lay off. Series back to being tied 2-2
Dodgers 6 Astros 2

Astros blew their opportunity to put the Dodgers in a big hole and win the series.
They'll have their metal tested tonight.

game 5 prediction
Dodgers 3
Astros 1

 

[Son of Butch]

7-7 now after 5 innings
want to update my prediction to 13-11 .... lol :)
I thought it was over when Dodgers jumped out ahead 3-0 in the top of the first inning!
Who could have seen a game like this coming out of Kershaw vs Keuchel?

 

[Son of Butch]

10 innings 5 hours 17 minutes

Astros 13
Dodgers 12

Unbelievable game.... nice for Astro fans to see Houston win their last home game of the year.
Houston leads the series 3-2

I haven;t liked the dodgers since the abandoned Brooklyn

You were pretty close with that. I went to bed when it was tied at 4.

 

[greybeard]

It's a great time to be a baseball fan!

 

[midTN_Brangusman]

Definitely the best game I have ever watched! I predict Astros will win game 7 for the championship.

 

[Rafter S]

Astros in 6.

I first posted that last week Tuesday and I'll stick with it.

I hope your right.

Went to the game last night with my 25 year old grandson and have never witnessed anything like that, people were going crazy ( the only dumb thing was after one of the home runs a guy ran onto the field with an red white and blue speedo swim suit) it was like being at a tamu football game nobody sits down, it was a really special night for everyone, the street bars next to Minute Maid were packed and loud of Astro fans..now Verlander do your magic

Wow--that had to be a once in a lifetime "good" experience!! Happy that someone from CT got to see it in person.
(most of us have had at least 1 once in a lifetime 'bad' experience)

Wow - must have been something in person. My emotions were worn out just watching it on TV.
