I’m not making any WS takes til this series is over. People are forgetting it’s still Verlander at home with an unlimited pitch count. Anything short of Didi Klubering him to death and it’s gonna be a tense night.
Verlander’s slider has been godlike since mid season.

He’s got more of a repertoire than Severino who is just FB/SL (and CH but he’s not gonna throw it to RHBs)
Granted it’s one hell of a FB (around 98 mph) and Severino is no slouch.

But I think this is gonna be a tough game.
I could see the HOU batters cheating a bit and attacking the FB early in the count.

Vegas likes the Astros tonight (-148) for whatever that is worth.

Internationally these are the two most famous teams in Baseball.



Would be HUGE

I hate to tell you but outside of the caribbean/latin america there is no international fanfare for baseball...

People in other countries that recognize the yankee hat/symbol dont associate it with baseball...

That sounds like a hell of a bet to make :lupe:

Get me to watch a baseball game :skip:


Most marquee finals matchup in a major sport since the Celtics-Lakers finals?
Yeah, probably. I'd put SB XLV (Steelers-Packers) up there, too, at least in terms of tradition/history/following, if not media market-wise.
