Kluber also set a MLB record by striking out 8 through the first three innings, but what impressed me was Miller getting himself into - and out of a bases loaded/nobody out jam.
Raining here now - they moved the start time for tonight's game back an hour but it's possible they may not even play. :(
My memory of that area was that it could rain for weeks on end in the fall. It would be rough if the World Series didn't conclude until after the Super Bowl.
How I feel right now...

I do think they have this one, but remember the example set by the Cavs. Being up 3 to 1 is not as much of a guarantee as winning that fourth game.
Tonights the big night.
I hope Homer isn't too stressed at this point. The Comeback Cavs have to be looming pretty large at this point.
It'll all be over in a few hours, though.
Wow, what a game... extra innings and they just unrolled the tarp. It's going to be a while before the game resumes.
Looks like I'm taking a half-day off tomorrow. At least.
Well, you can't get a much better series than that. Extra innings in the seventh game between two perennial losers makes for quite a wrap up. Almost a shame that somebody had to lose.
That game was awesome in every since of the word. It truly inspired awe and wonder.
Chicago leading off with a -insert Trump voice- huge lead. Cleveland chipping away at that lead. Chicago pulling ahead again. Cleveland tying it up. Chicago pulling ahead in extra-innings. Cleveland setting up the tie, but just unable to pull it off.
It was everything that baseball is about.
Shut off the giant downstairs TV when the Tribe went down 5-1. Went upstairs and listened in on the radio until Davis tied it up with the homer off Chapman. Since the radio is always a pitch or two ahead of TV I was able to watch it as well. Really thought they had it at that point. Shaw seemed sharp until the rain delay and a completely different pitcher after. Pity since the run Cleveland got in the bottom of the 10th could have been the game winner otherwise.
Considering the nearly season long loss of their center fielder and best hitter, mid-season loss of their starting catcher, and late season loss of both their #2 and #3 starting pitchers they did pretty well against the best team in the majors. Never thought I'd see both Chicago teams win it all before the Tribe, but that's life as a Cleveland sports fan. :cry:
The irony, to me, was that the Cavs did the incredible by coming back from a 3-1 deficit in the finals....then the Tribe did the nearly unthinkable by losing when up 3-1 in the World Series.
If you remember the 2007 ALCS Cleveland had a 3-1 lead and ended up losing three straight to Boston. So we're no strangers to such disappointment.Quote:

There's a subject that I have yet to venture into....but I kind of think it's in my future.
Gas prices went down 3 pennies today!!
Gas is down out here, too. It's the lowest it has been in perhaps a year....which I find kind of bizarre, since I thought it was generally up. On the other hand, we don't necessarily follow the trends.
Gas has floated around $1.90 a gallon here. It will creep up to $2.00 and then drop back down. It's odd.
Yea it was def. something to see the drop!Quote:

I live 5 miles next to a refinery, man if our taxes weren't ridiculous gas would be next to nothing.
