    A couple of thoughts....

    1. Kudos to JV for righting the ship Friday night and pitching 7 innings to save the bullpen for last night

    2. Kudos to AJ for skillfully maneuvering through the bullpen and getting to the ninth inning with a two run lead

    Jose is such a gentleman. Hits the biggest HR in maybe Astros history and he rounds the bases without so much of a hint at what he has done. Name me one other player who would have been so reserved like that? Not even a fist pump in the air.

    I would have loved to have been among those fans chanting his name as they were leaving....a truly special moment.

    Boo, Bu, Bo, and Bu-kow were used to announce one's presence in the 1500's In October. Altuve just walks off.

    Is Westbrook wearing OKC shorts in that photo? If so, that's lame.

    Haven't seen it mentioned, but how awesome was Springer's AB? Regular season Springer strikes out 110% of the time chasing those sliders. You know he wanted to be the one to walk it off after barely missing that catch and Chapman knew it and pitched him accordingly. His patience there was incredible and it gave Altuve the chance to be a hero.
