Default World Series

Always like watching World Series. Some have to stain it with never ending complaining. Apparently MLB gets a "F" on their "Gender Equality" report card as there are no US born black players on either the Astro's or the Phillies. There are however players from 8 different countries playing in the series. To me purple , blue , black, white ...doesn't matter , a man is a man , the best player makes the team.
GO Phillies !

Watching it also......The Phillies are golden right now. I'm sort of liking the Astros to win despite the Phillies show of strength.

Hoping for Philly. Like the underdog story and it would be nice for Harper to get a ring.

Ummmm... I don't think being black or American qualifies as as a gender, but Go Phillies!

Go Phillies!

I love baseball. Game 1 of this series was as good a game to watch that there is.

Astros pitchers combined for a no-hitter 5-0 win against the Philliies. This was only the second time in history that a no-hitter was pitched in the World Series.

At least two more games to play...three at the most.

The 3 relievers were strong and pitched great to save the no hitter.
The previous game i thought Dusty hung his pitcher Lance Mc Culler out to dry. He was getting hammered and I thought he should of been pulled. he now has the distinction of first pitcher in World Series history , 118 years , to give up 5 home runs

That is generally not Dusty's style. I suggest leaving McCuller in, was a message being sent by Dusty.
Who fully knows the dynamics in the clubhouse...
