3-2 headed back to Houston. I don't think anybody expected the Yankees to come this far.
Judge and Sanchez have come alive, even bashing on Dallas Keuchel. Masahiro Tanaka had another fantastic postseason start. The arsenal of guys like Greg Bird, Tommy Kahnle and Chase Headley is beginning to work out in droves, as well. If we win Friday night, the Yankees go to the World Series for the first time since 2009, and the Astros will have to limp home on a year the Series was basically theirs. Obviously I'm rooting for the Yankees, but either story would be cool.
And then, in the NL...
The Cubs won a game, yes, we all kind of saw that coming...but on a game when the Dodgers essentially had things in the bag, there was power from Javier Baez and Willson Contreras, and a nice start from Jake Arrieta. The Dodgers are going to need to end this tonight, and with Kershaw on the mound, they should hope to, unless they'd prefer to hear sportswriters bitching about it for the next few months.
Tonight, we may get a resolution, or we may get another underdog story. Let's see what we're getting.
