baddog Posted September 26, 2015 Report Posted September 26, 2015 Been a few since I've seen that. Still beats a trainIt was state-of-the-art in its day. Looked like something Atari would have invented.Good to reminisce, but today's Astros are just about done. Do we still have a wild card chance? Quote
BS Wildcats Posted September 26, 2015 Report Posted September 26, 2015 It was state-of-the-art in its day. Looked like something Atari would have invented.Good to reminisce, but today's Astros are just about done. Do we still have a wild card chance?I hope, but I think they are prolly done. They have to win the next 2 to have any chance. It's hard to make the playoffs without clutch hitting and a strong bullpen. The homer is nice, but not when it comes with a .230 avg. Quote
bullets13 Posted September 26, 2015 Report Posted September 26, 2015 astros almost choked that game away today. a must win for them, but they have to feel about as uneasy as possible after actually winning a game. Quote
Ty Cobb Posted September 28, 2015 Author Report Posted September 28, 2015 houston won 2 of 3 games from the RANGERS and are 2.5 games behind.

bullets13 Posted September 29, 2015 Report Posted September 29, 2015 Rangers have to find their groove again! Quote
bullets13 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 Rangers looked bad tonight, but got a huge win. Magic number finally down to 4. They had lost 3 straight, but it felt like 30. Quote
Ty Cobb Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Posted September 30, 2015 I really thought this was a 2 team race but the angels have played themselves into contention. Quote
baddog Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 I really thought this was a 2 team race but the angels have played themselves into contention. The Angels are a double edged sword for my Stros. We needed to win last night and didn't. That could very well be our season. Quote
bullets13 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 I really thought this was a 2 team race but the angels have played themselves into contention. screwed us too because we won and the Astros lost but our magic number only went down 1 Quote
bullets13 Posted October 1, 2015 Report Posted October 1, 2015 Angels finally lost a game to drop the Rangers magic number to 3, and the Rangers have a 6-2 lead going to the 8th to drop it to 2 Quote
bullets13 Posted October 1, 2015 Report Posted October 1, 2015 Rangers win! Magic number is 2 with the Angels, and 3 with the stros pending their game result tonight! HUGE win tonight!!! Quote
bullets13 Posted October 1, 2015 Report Posted October 1, 2015 to be honest, though, I'd love for both texas teams to make it into the playoffs. Quote
Eazy Posted October 1, 2015 Report Posted October 1, 2015 Astros still in excellent shape. With Texas and the Angels playing 4 games against each other, Houston just needs to win 2 of 3 against Zona to at least guarantee a playoff for the final spot. Quote
Ty Cobb Posted October 1, 2015 Author Report Posted October 1, 2015 Well, here we are at the end of the season. The RANGERS currently hold a 2.5 game lead over the astros and a 3 game lead over the angles. The RANGERS have a 4 game series with the angels and the astros have a 3 game series with the diamondbacks.

bullets13 Posted October 1, 2015 Report Posted October 1, 2015 Just saw where the Rangers can clinch a playoff berth with a win tonight, which should mean they have 4 shots to win one game against the Angels to clinch a playoff spot. That being said, winning the division is the main goal here, and might take two wins out of four. Quote
baddog Posted October 2, 2015 Report Posted October 2, 2015 I don't see a chance for my Stros with two teams ahead of them battling each other. One of those teams will be ahead in the end and I'm not sure about the wild card. Quote
PhatMack19 Posted October 2, 2015 Report Posted October 2, 2015 Best case for Astros is to go 3-0 while Angels sweep 4 from the Rangers. That would leave the Astros and Angels tied for the division and Rangers watching on tv. The Astros just need to win all 3 and let the rest work itself out. Quote
bullets13 Posted October 2, 2015 Report Posted October 2, 2015 Adrian Beltre with a 3-run double to put the Rangers up 4-1 in the 5th!! Quote
bullets13 Posted October 2, 2015 Report Posted October 2, 2015 Angels cut it 4-3, but Rangers threatening. Quote
bullets13 Posted October 2, 2015 Report Posted October 2, 2015 Rangers win and lock up a spot in the playoffs!!! Quote
bullets13 Posted October 3, 2015 Report Posted October 3, 2015 Rangers going to the bottom of the 8th up 4! Three outs away from clinching!!! Quote
bullets13 Posted October 3, 2015 Report Posted October 3, 2015 Rangers have given up 5 in the top of the 9th to go down 1 run. Absolutely horrific pitching. Coaches deserve a large chunk of the blame for bringing out the closer for the 5th straight day. He gave up two homers in 4 pitches and was pulled. Out of his 5 straight appearances, 2 were save opportunities. Poor management Quote
bullets13 Posted October 3, 2015 Report Posted October 3, 2015 Unfathomable collapse by the Rangers. Hurts the Astros as much as it hurts the Rangers, too. Quote
