Count me also for a Brewers Astros series
Yanks Didi Gregorius has to have Tommy John surgery, and will miss part of next season, which is the last year of his current deal with the Yanks. Have to wonder if the Yanks will go all in now on Machado to play short and not worry about what to do with Didi when he gets healthy as they will only have a half a season with him under contract at that point.

They already have 90 million on the books for next year tied up in four players(Stanton, Tanaka, Ellsbury, and Chapman), would imagine adding the 35 or so million of what Machado's probably going to demand would make it real hard for them to address their other glaring needs

Oh look, Kershaw looking good at home against a team of post season rookies didn't actually translate to him suddenly having fixed his post season issues, who'd have thunk it.
I think the Astros acquiring Verlander might be the most impactful move any MLB team has made in the last few years
Looking more and more like a rematch of last year for the World Series.
Every day is a gift, not a given right.
Ugh, I just want the series evened up tomorrow.
Both series even now. Wow.
Not sure I'd call a 13-inning battle/victory in your own house a momentum shift, like many hardcore Dodger fans seem to think. You're supposed to win those home games handily.

felt more like a desperation must win game, Brewers didn't need it, if they take this game and they're leading as of now they still go home up 3-2
I was at my gym which didn’t have Brewers-Dodgers on TV, but heard on the radio that Wade Miley started for Milwaukee, walked the first batter he faced on five pitches and got the hook as it turned out Craig Counsell wanted to go the “bullpenning” route. That’s wild.

some days I don't even recognize this game any more
Clayton Kershaw countered the Brewers' bullpenning strategy by giving the Dodgers seven strong innings in a 5-2 win last night to take a 3-2 lead in the NLCS and could wrap up the pennant Friday night. By the way, the Brewers' slated starter tomorrow----Wade Miley. Meanwhile, the Red Sox, leading Houston 3-1 in the ALCS could punch their ticket to the Fall Classic with a win against the Astros tonight.

I had to listen to the Red Sox Astros game on the radio because I don't have cable TV. The Red Sox announcer was making the call on the catch to end the game and he fell over backwards in his chair. He wasn't sure the catch was made and then one heard the headset microphone go boom, boom, boom as it came at least partially off his head. So it made it all even more dramatic as I wondered what the hell was going on.
