LosMediasBlancas Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Cold and rainy tonight. Keep it under 2hrs and 30 mins. Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin57 Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 (edited) I'm optimistic about tonight. We looked a bit rusty after our long rest, but this time, unlike the first game against the LAA, we won. I expect us to be sharper still for Game #2. Rain and cold will be interesting factors in that mix, though Edited October 23, 2005 by kevin57 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antonio Osuna Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Its perhaps odd to have a "must-win" game with a 1-0 lead, but I think this is precisely that kind of game. Even the posters here who are usually a tad overoptimistic are admitting that Oswalt will be a huge pain. For Houston to come out of Game 3 with a 2-1 lead and 2 more games at home would be, to say the very least, highly undesirable. The weight of the world is on Buehrle. That won't effect him one bit. But the cold weather and the Houston bats might. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitetrain8601 Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Every game in the World Series is must win. With that said, Let's get it done again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So are you predicting another loss for tonight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But after what I saw in the ALCS I'm not about to put too much weight on a loss at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwerty Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Oct 23, 2005 -> 03:14 PM) Pods, LF Iguchi, 2B Dye, RF Kong, 1B Everett, DH Rowand, CF AJ, C Crede, 3B Uribe, SS Buehrle, SP Let's get 3 more. Can anyone tell me why everett is in the line-up let alone batting 5th? Sure he has nine hits off of pettite and a .281 average, but his .656 ops is s***ty as hell. I much rather have ozuna who has been pretty damn good versus lefties in the game. Yes, i know ozzie is going with what has got us here... but everett is an annoying POS and i cannot wait until he is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
