Regardless, if they win one in Boston (which I expect), they aren't winning 3 in a row in Houston. Unless they win games 1 and 2, the series will finish in Boston, winner idk. Quote

But as good as both teams are, I find it hard to picture a scenario where one team beats the other 3 times in a row. Boston won't be "biting their nails if they don't win both at home... They dropped one at home against the Yanks and responded with a 16-1 victory. If they drop 2 at home, time to bite nails. Again, I think both teams are too good for one to beat the other 3 in a row.

I don't put a ton of stock in regular season series. Especially considering Boston had clinched home field throughout, not saying they weren't trying to win, but end of the regular season games with nothing to play for is different. Again, I can't predict the future, but I don't see either team winning 3 in a row. We will see. Quote

I’m not a fan of that format for the home field team. You split at home and the series may not ever come back. They only way you actually have home field is if it goes 7 games. Quote

Ever since they instituted this in the NBA, I thought it devalued home field advantage significantly. But I guess that may have been the point. Either way, I prefer the 2-2-1-1-1 format.

Whoopi Goldberg's Lips Posted October 13, 2018 Report Posted October 13, 2018 I don't think home field is going to play a big role in this series. We closed them out up there last year, we had one of the best road records in MLB history this year, and we played in a tougher division overall than the Sox did. Plus, we clicked on all cylinders in the first round. I think we're gonna show the baseball world just how genius Lunhow and the front office really is in this series. Quote

Tigers2010 Posted October 14, 2018 Report Posted October 14, 2018 This has been a pretty sloppy game from both sides. Pitchers struggling with control, fielding woes, and an awful unpire (both ways). Astros doing enough to come away with a win. Quote
