The World Series begins tonight, in what will be one of the best in recent memory for pitching match-ups. Scherzer versus Cole. Strasburg versus Verlander. Corbin versus Greinke. That’s gonna be some good stuff. (And then the teams proceed to score like 500 runs this week because baseball is weird.)
One person connected to team has said a “bombshell candidate” is in the mix if a clear favorite does not emerge from the current group. Have fun with that one. No way David Wright would ever do this so don’t go down that road btw

During the Astros’ ALCS celebration, assistant GM Brandon Taubman yelled, half a dozen times, to three female reporters, “Thank God we got Osuna! I’m so f——— glad we got Osuna!” On a systemic problem, in Houston and across the league: https://t.co/8zyVwG2Lpo

The Astros called this @stephapstein report misleading. It is not. I was there. Saw it. And I should’ve said something sooner.

Catching up with this afternoon’s AFL box score.
Erich Uelmen pitched two hitless innings, with two walks, no strikeouts, 4 groundouts and a lineout. His AFL ERA is down to 0.75. Giddy. Up.
Miguel Amaya went 1/4 with a double, Zack Short went 1/3 with a walk.
