    I don't see the Nats winning two more in Houston. The Astros, despite their bullshit PR, are an outstanding team and no way they go silent again at home.
    So the Nats better win tonight and, well, I don't see that happening either.

    Maybe just maybe Strasburg can win Tuesday and Max can go in Game 7.

    This has been an odd series in many ways. So weird that it even made Donald Trump smile. I don't think I've ever seen that before.

    My son, a Braves fan, sent me a text in the first inning: These sumbitches are just so patient.

    Not an easy out in that Astros lineup and they make a pitcher earn every damn out. Makes what Scherzer and Strasburg did in Houston much more impressive.

    Murdoch already owns Altuve’s brother and sister, maybe he’s going for the complete set?

    I might be wrong, but wasn't the first game the only one with a lead change?

    Curious fact: Home teams are hitting .227 this series entering tonight. That's the best by the home team since 2015 (.232).

    Congrats to the Walgreens' fans.
    Their attendance was down 11% from last year and their TV ratings were down 9%, but they delivered tonight when it mattered. The country should join in thanking them for rebuking the bigot in chief.

    I thought take me out to the ball game in the seventh-inning stretch were started by the president leaving the field and people standing and respect.

    I wonder what new tradition we are going to get tonight?
