Awesome strikeout of Betts (Pujols, on the other hand, just looked terrible).

Pitching plan for the rest of the game:5th - Minter6th - Matzek7th - Matzek8th - Matzek9th - Martin if up by at least 15 runs, otherwise Matzek— Troll (@CapitolAvenue) October 24, 2021

am I wrong or is the home plate ump’s strike zone absolute garbage all around?

"No World Series team in the history of baseball had ever gone as many games into a season without ever having a winning record as this team went. And it’s not even close."

It wasn't till their 111th game that the Braves went above .500. (I immediately checked the '73 Mets--they started out 4-0.)

Rosario ended up hitting .560/.607/1.040 for the series. Don’t think anyone saw that coming.

Sweet revenge: MLB took the All-Star Game out of Georgia but the World Series is still coming South with Atlanta celebrating its first trip to the Fall Classic since 1999. https://t.co/h12BJi3PZZ— Bob Nightengale (@BNightengale) October 24, 2021

Travis Tritt was also posturing about it all too I saw. F'n lame.

538/Nate Silver has the Series 50-50. I'd say that's about right, although I'd give a slight edge to the Astros because of home field--52/48, say.
