Jose Altuve MVP of the AL Championship Series put the Houston Astros' in their first World Series with a walk of Home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to the Astros' a 6-4 game win off of Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman giving the Astros' a 4-2 series win.

The Yankees one of the highest paid teams in baseball goes to show you that "Your money can't buy you a championship. Not this year. Pitching Does."


I thought they won the world series in 2017
4 games to 3 over the L.A. Dodgers

Well, the series will be a lot less interesting now. Go Nationals!


Not sure why you say this. Both teams have great pitching which should mean close games but, hey, you never know.

First time I’ve in 100 years that the Yankees haven’t made at least one Series appearance during the current decade.

Fake news!

Money buys you the best pitchers. The two teams going to the World Series, have the highest paid pitchers of the top 20 in MLB.

Nationals: Strasbourg $39.3 M; Scherzer $37.5 M
Astros: Greinke $34.5 M; Verlander $28.0 M
Yankees: Tanaka $22.0 M; Hap $17.0 M


You made me smile! Thanks. Next year!!

Two things: Yankees Chock?? And I believe Houston won the whole thing a couple years ago.

“Choke” also refers to not getting the job done when you were expected to.

As for posting the rules of cricket, I’m sure many of us unfamiliar with the game would love to be enlightened. Go for it!

This is the first decade (assuming you incorrectly believe the decade started in 2010 and ends this year) in 100 years that the Yankees have not made a WS appearance.
